United States (US) President Donald Trump announced an ongoing desire to resolve the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war during a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday. This marks the second joint press conference between Trump and another head of state involved in the Ukrainian invasion, following Friday's joint presser with Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Donald Trump's soft rhetoric on hopefully, maybe finding some semblance of a peace deal marks a sharp about-face from the language Trump used just before he met with Putin late last week. Trump's fiery statements about being displeased with Putin's actions and determination to walk away from the table on Friday with a peace deal already signed or else Russia could face still economic sanctions and penalties have quickly given way to softer statements suggesting that the war could continue.
