Hey there! Have you heard the big news? 🗞️
On Tuesday, U.S. President Donald Trump and Russia’s President Vladimir Putin had a 90-minute phone call. 📞 Guess what they agreed on? An immediate pause in strikes against energy facilities in Ukraine! 🇺🇦⚡
This means they’re taking a first step towards peace. ✌️ The White House called it a “movement to peace” and hopes it will lead to even more, like a ceasefire in the Black Sea. 🌊
President Trump shared on social media that they will be working quickly for a Complete Ceasefire and, ultimately, an END to the war between Russia and Ukraine. 🕊️
The leaders also talked about exchanging prisoners of war and improving the relationship between the United States and Russia. 🤝
But wait, there’s more! Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he’s hopeful but wants more details. He mentioned that Ukraine is open to any ideas that bring a lasting and fair peace. 🕊️ However, he didn’t agree with stopping military aid to Ukraine, as it might weaken their position.
This is a big deal because it could mean less fighting and more talking. Let’s hope for the best! 🌟
