Trump expressed hope for ending the conflict, though he admitted it is not certain. "We want to see if we can bring that war to an end. Maybe we can, maybe we can't, but I think we have a very good chance," stated the US President.

Tuesday's discussions between Trump and Putin are expected to cover, among other things, land and power plants. According to "The Guardian," negotiators have already explored the possibility of a division of "certain assets." "I think we have a lot of it already discussed very much by both sides, Ukraine and Russia. We're already talking about that, dividing up certain assets," said Trump, quoted by the British newspaper.

Trump, as highlighted by "The Guardian," is seeking to secure Putin's support for a 30-day ceasefire, which Ukraine accepted last week. Meanwhile, Russia continues its military actions, attempting to push Ukrainian forces out of the Kursk region.

Trump provided details after his special envoy Steve Witkoff stated in an interview with CNN that Putin "accepts President Trump's philosophy" and wants to end the war.
