US President Donald Trump has reaffirmed his commitment to pursuing a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine despite the uncertainties over a potential face-to-face meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Speaking Wednesday, Trump characterized his position as both realistic and optimistic, and said he is closely monitoring how both leaders are handling this crossroads in the negotiations, according to CBS News.
"I've been watching it, I've been seeing it, and I've been talking about it with President Putin and President Zelenskyy," Trump said in a phone interview with CBS.
"Something is going to happen, but they are not ready yet. But something is going to happen. We are going to get it done," he said.
Trump mentioned his good relationship with both sides and that it would be over for all to see the coming weeks.
"My relationship with all of them is very good. We're going to find out how good it is over the next week or two,” he said.
