Trump has ‘productive’ talks with Putin before Zelensky meet

Trump’s renewed upbeat tone comes despite wide skepticism in Europe about Putin’s intentions after Russia carried out another massive bombardment of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv just as Zelensky was heading to Trump’s Florida estate. “I just had a very good and productive telephone call with President Putin of Russia,” Trump announced on his Truth Social platform.
