Trump claims ongoing “good conversations” with Putin and Zelenskyy, won’t say when
In a Fox News "Sunday Briefing" interview on 26 April, US President Donald Trump claimed "good conversations" with both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, then declined to give a date for any of them.
"I don't want to reveal that"
Asked when he had last spoken to Putin, Trump replied:
"I don't want to reveal that, but I do have conversations with him, and I do have conversations with President Zelenskyy, and good conversations," he said, without giving a date for any of the recent calls.
He once again framed the obstacle to a peace deal as a personal grievance between the two presidents.
"Hate is a bad thing. Hate is a bad thing when you're trying to settle something. It'll happen, it'll happen," Trump said.
