US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky would be set up \u201cvery soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

The announcement came as Trump\u2019s administration ramps up diplomatic efforts aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war, now in its fifth year.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019ll be a meeting set up very soon and I think a lot of progress could be made,\u201d Trump told reporters.<\/p>\n

Zelensky said on Sunday that a trilateral meeting between Kyiv, Washington and Moscow would take place in November, aiming to restart stalled peace talks.<\/p>\n

The Kremlin had previously said that a meeting between the three countries was planned to take place in the United Arab Emirates in November.<\/p>\n

Putin, who ordered the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, has consistently rejected face-to-face talks with Zelensky and insisted Moscow intends to seize the rest of eastern Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Trump came to power in January 2025 promising to end the war in 24 hours \u2014 but over a year of US-led talks have failed to produce a breakthrough, with tens of thousands killed.<\/p>\n

In recent days Trump has once again pivoted away from Ukraine and back to Putin, trumpeting what he said was a deal for Russia to sell diesel and reduce prices sent soaring by his Iran war.<\/p>\n
