Speaking to reporters after returning from a campaign rally in Texas, Trump said he had discussed both conflicts with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff on Air Force One.
"I think with Russia, we're making a lot of progress in the Russia-Ukraine relationship. There will be a meeting set up soon," Trump said.
When asked who would attend the meeting, Trump replied, "President Putin and President Zelenskyy," without elaborating on the time, location, or format of the meeting.
Moscow and Kyiv previously held US-mediated peace talks in January and February of this year. Three rounds of negotiations took place in Abu Dhabi and Geneva.
The meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy will be the two leaders' first face-to-face encounter since the Russia-Ukraine war began in 2022.
