Trump en Poetin starten gesprekken om oorlog in Oekraïne te beëindigen

February 13, 2025 - U.S. President Donald Trump has said he and Russian president Vladimir Putin had spoken and agreed to begin negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.

In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said he and the Russian president had “agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately”.

Later, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had spoken with Trump about a “lasting, reliable peace”.

The conversations came after Trump’s defence secretary earlier said Kyiv would have to give up its long-held goals of joining the NATO military alliance and regaining all of its territory seized by Russia, signaling a dramatic shift in Washington's approach to the conflict, Reuters said.
