The conversation will take place ahead of Trump's meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House. According to the source, the main topics of discussion will be the prospects for peace talks and the possible supply of Tomahawk long-range missiles to Ukraine. Earlier, Trump noted that he warned Zelenskyy about the possibility of presenting Putin with a new ultimatum: either Moscow sits down for serious negotiations, or Kyiv will receive modern missiles.
The White House has not yet commented on the planned conversation, but experts note that Trump's initiative could become a key stage in the US diplomatic strategy for resolving the war in Ukraine.
