During the conversation, Trump also noted that he is ready to participate in organizing a trilateral meeting with Putin and Zelensky if negotiations in March prove successful.
Zelensky thanked Trump for his support and emphasized that he is the one who can convince Putin to stop the conflict. "I hope that the war will end this year," he added. In response, Trump noted that the conflict has lasted too long and expressed a desire to end it within a month, as reported by sources.
According to U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Trump's patience regarding the resolution of the situation in Ukraine is not limitless.
"Do I believe that the president's patience is limitless? No, I do not. But I will not predict when it will run out or when he will decide to stop participating in the negotiations," Rubio noted.
He added that the U.S. does not intend to withdraw from the negotiation process, as they believe that only diplomatic efforts can lead to a resolution of the conflict.
