U.S. President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Tuesday to comment on his phone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling it a “very good and productive one” and claiming progress toward ending the war in Ukraine.
In his post, Trump announced that both sides had agreed to a ceasefire on energy and infrastructure attacks, with further talks on a full ceasefire now “in full force and effect.” He added, “This war would have never started if I were President!” and reiterated his belief that a peace deal is within reach.
The Kremlin confirmed that Putin had accepted a 30-day pause in strikes on energy targets, following Ukraine’s earlier agreement to the U.S.-backed plan. The White House added that negotiations will begin “immediately” in the Middle East on a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea, as part of a broader push for a lasting peace deal.
“The leaders agreed that the movement to peace will begin with an energy and infrastructure ceasefire, as well as technical negotiations on implementation of a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea, full ceasefire and permanent peace,” the White House readout stated.
Trump has long insisted that the war would not have begun under his presidency, and Tuesday’s statement reinforced his push to position himself as a key broker in peace talks.
