Trump is dissatisfied with the situation in Ukraine, a conversation with Putin is expected

US President Donald Trump expressed his dissatisfaction with the state of the war in Ukraine following Russia's largest drone and missile attack on the neighboring country since its full-scale invasion in February 2022.

"I am not satisfied with what is happening there," the White House leader said in an interview with journalists at Andrews Air Force Base on Sunday, September 7. "I am sure that we will resolve this. However, I am not satisfied with the current processes. "I am not satisfied with all the issues related to the war," he noted.

Trump also announced his intention to speak by phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the near future. "Very soon. In the next few days," CNN quoted him as saying. According to him, during a briefing at the White House on September 5, he spoke about his plans to talk with Putin and said, "Yes, I will talk. We had a very good relationship."

Earlier, on Sunday, September 7, the American leader also expressed his readiness to strengthen new sanctions against Russia. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent also noted in his statement that additional economic pressure from the United States and the European Union could force Russian leader Vladimir Putin to begin peace negotiations with Ukraine.

Thus, the latest statements made by Washington indicate that the situation around Ukraine remains a key topic on the international political agenda.
