Trump said he had held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin but declined to disclose details of their conversation. However, he suggested that the agreement under discussion would go beyond the conflict in Ukraine and have broader implications for Europe.
"There will be a big deal, and it will include not only Ukraine, but possibly all of Europe. It will be a big and wonderful deal," Trump noted.

However, Trump did not disclose any details of the talks. The US president also stated that he had not met with Ukrainian representatives, although representatives of both countries attended a meeting with US First Lady Melania Trump that day.
