Russia has taunted President Donald Trump for repeatedly trying to force through a ceasefire in the Ukraine War. Kremlin foreign policy spokesperson Yuri Ushakov told reporters on Thursday that the U.S. president “once again raised the question of an early cessation of hostilities.”

The Kremlin says U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed Iran, Ukraine and other issues by phone, their sixth publicly disclosed chat since Trump returned to the White House.

Russian President Vladimir Putin told U.S. President Donald Trump in a phone call on Thursday that Moscow wants a negotiated end to the Ukraine war but will not step back from its original goals, a Kremlin aide said.
