Russia Ukraine War
Speaking to reporters at the Kremlin, Putin said, “I think the matter is coming to an end,” referring to the conflict that has entered its fifth year.
Trump said the ceasefire will include “a suspension of all kinetic activity” as well as the exchange of 1,000 prisoners from each side.
Macron said the scheme would start with 3,000 participants in 2026, rising to 10,000 by 2030 and 50,000 by 2035.
The high-stakes meeting comes after Trump seems to have shifted his stance, now backing a full peace agreement over a ceasefire — a position long favored by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
