Putin rebuffs Trump in call, vows to press on with Ukraine war
Share this @internewscast.com

Russian President Vladimir Putin once more declined to cease his war in Ukraine until Russia fulfills its “goals” despite another direct conversation between the Kremlin chief and President Donald Trump.

“Vladimir Putin, for his part, noted that we persist in seeking a political and negotiated solution to the conflict,” Russian diplomat Yuri Ushakov stated in a summary following the call.

“Our president also mentioned that Russia will accomplish the goals it has set: that is the elimination of the well-known root causes that led to the current situation, to the current acute confrontation, and Russia will not retreat from these goals,” he added.

While speaking with Fox News Digital this week, experts warned the move could embolden Putin and his war ambitions. 

The readout of the call released by the Kremlin did not detail whether this move by the Trump administration was discussed.

The pair also reportedly discussed the conflict in the Middle East, particularly as it relates to Iran and recent U.S. and Israeli strikes against Tehran’s nuclear program.

“The Russian side emphasized the importance of resolving all disputes, disagreements and conflict situations exclusively by political and diplomatic means,” the readout added.
