President Trump announced on Wednesday that he spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin for over an hour to discuss recent developments in Russia’s war with Ukraine and preventing Iran’s uranium enrichment for nuclear weapons.
“It was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace,” the President said.
This comes after Ukraine launched several drone strikes on Russian airbases.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that 117 drones were used in the strike inside Russia that wiped out dozens of nuclear “doomsday” bombers and other aircraft.
Per the Associated Press, “Ukraine said that 41 Russian warplanes, including strategic bombers and other types of combat aircraft, were destroyed or damaged in Sunday’s operation, which officials said was planned over 18 months.”
Notably, this attack came two days after RINO Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who cheered the attack, met with Zelensky.
“President Putin did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields,” President Trump stated after his phone call with Putin.
Trump also signaled that he and Putin are seemingly in agreement on Iranian nuclear weapons, and Putin may participate in negotiations to ensure that Iran cannot develop a nuclear weapon.
President Trump, in response to reports that a proposed deal will allow Iran to enrich limited amounts of uranium, reiterated on Monday his position that “WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT OF URANIUM.”
Full statement below:
I just finished speaking, by telephone, with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia. The call lasted approximately one hour and 15 minutes. We discussed the attack on Russia’s docked airplanes, by Ukraine, and also various other attacks that have been taking place by both sides.
It was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace. President Putin did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields. We also discussed Iran, and the fact that time is running out on Iran’s decision pertaining to nuclear weapons, which must be made quickly! I stated to President Putin that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and, on this, I believe that we were in agreement.
President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran and that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion. It is my opinion that Iran has been slowwalking their decision on this very important matter, and we will need a definitive answer in a very short period of time!
