"I will talk to Vladimir Putin, yes. Hopefully, he will also agree (to a ceasefire — ed.), and I really think it would be 75% of the way there," the US leader said.
Earlier, US President Donald Trump said when the US and Russia will hold talks on the war in Ukraine. According to him, it will happen in the next few days.
"Later today or tomorrow we're going to meet with Russia," the US leader said, as quoted by Reuters.
Trump also added that he would invite Zelensky to return to the White House.
As a reminder, after the talks in Saudi Arabia, the United States decided to cancel the pause in intelligence sharing and resume security assistance to Ukraine.
