U.S. President Donald Trump had a busy day on the phone Wednesday, holding lengthy conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin and later with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Trump announced on social media that he and Putin agreed to work toward ending the war in Ukraine, saying they both want to "stop the millions of deaths taking place in the War with Russia/Ukraine." He added that teams from both sides will begin peace negotiations immediately.

Trump also mentioned that they discussed various other issues and made plans for reciprocal visits to each other’s countries.
