Trump casts doubt on a Putin-Zelensky confrontation, but warns another meeting

A meeting with three will happen. One with two, I don't know. But one-three will happen. But, you know, sometimes people aren't ready for this”, Trump told Daily Caller in an interview conducted in the Oval Office on Friday, writes CNN.

After a meeting with Putin in Alaska and Zelensky's reception and European leaders at the White House earlier this month, Trump said he had begun to organise a bilateral meeting between Putin and Zelensky as the next step towards achieving peace.

But Putin has not indicated that he is willing to sit on the table with Zelensky. Just days ago, Russia launched its second largest air strike against Ukraine, killing at least 25 people and damaging buildings belonging to the European Council and the British Council, as well as several residences.
