Trump plans meeting with Putin to discuss Ukraine conflict resolution
President-elect Donald Trump announced plans for a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss ending the ongoing war in Ukraine. Trump described the conflict as a "bloody mess" and expressed a desire to resolve it quickly. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed Putin's willingness to engage in dialogue with Trump but noted that no specific date has been set. The situation remains tense, with Ukraine facing military challenges as Russian forces advance. Trump's approach contrasts with President Joe Biden's strategy, which has focused on significant military aid to Ukraine. Biden has been critical of Putin, while Trump has suggested a different stance, indicating a potential shift in U.S. foreign policy.
