President Donald Trump says his administration has already had “very serious” discussions with Russia about its war in Ukraine and that he and Russian President Vladimir Putin could soon take “significant” action toward ending the grinding conflict.

"We have meetings and talks scheduled with various parties, including Ukraine and Russia. And I think those discussions are actually going pretty well," Trump told reporters late on Feb. 2.

For those with a vested interest in Ukraine, U.S. President Donald Trump's first week in office was a bit of a rollercoaster. During his first presidential term, Trump famously praised Russian President Vladimir Putin.

President Trump jabs at the Russian leader with threats; Vladimir Putin responds with flattery. But there are notable signals in their jousting, including a revived discussion about nuclear arms control.

Ukraine needed broader security guarantees and Russian President Vladimir Putin was not afraid of Europe, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told Fox News in an interview in which he urged U.S. President Donald Trump to be on Ukraine's side.

Donald Trump said in an interview with Fox News that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy "shouldn't have allowed" war in his country to happen.

President Donald Trump is emphasizing that targeting Russia’s oil revenue is the best way to get Moscow to end its nearly three-year war against Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says excluding his country from talks between the U.S. and Russia about the war in Ukraine would be "very dangerous."

Trump's Ukraine envoy said Sunday that both Kyiv and Moscow would have to make concessions if they are to successfully negotiate a solution to the ongoing war.
