U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that military aid to Ukraine was not discussed during his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, despite the Kremlin stating that Putin had called for an end to U.S. support for Kyiv.
Speaking in an interview on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle, Trump said: “We didn’t talk about aid, we didn’t talk about aid at all. We talked about a lot of things, but aid was never discussed.”
The conversation between the two leaders came as Putin agreed to a temporary halt on strikes against Ukrainian energy infrastructure but refused to endorse the full 30-day ceasefire that Trump had proposed as a step toward a broader peace deal.
The Kremlin, in its readout of the call, stated that Putin had emphasized that any resolution of the conflict would require a halt to all military and intelligence assistance to Ukraine. However, Trump did not acknowledge such a request.
The United States remains Ukraine’s largest military donor, having allocated or delivered over $70 billion in military aid since January 2022, including $15 billion for heavy weaponry, according to the Kiel Institute.
While Ukraine has agreed to the limited ceasefire, Russia's refusal to commit to a broader truce raises further questions about the future of negotiations. Meanwhile, Trump’s comments signal that U.S. aid to Kyiv remains a key unresolved issue in ongoing diplomatic efforts.
