The phone call between the Russian and US presidents came as the US pushes for an end to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Trump and Putin agreed to pursue a limited ceasefire targeting energy and infrastructure in Ukraine, with the White House aiming for a broader peace, including maritime aspects. Discussions include prisoner exchanges and potential division of assets, but Ukraine's agreement is unclear. Putin seeks guarantees regarding Ukraine's rearmament, NATO membership, and protection of Russian language and culture, while Trump aims to end the conflict, potentially straining US-ally relations.
