Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed on Tuesday that he held a "productive" phone conversation with his United States counterpart Donald Trump, during which sanctions on Russia were discussed.
"[Russia's] economy continues to decline, and that's exactly why Moscow is so sensitive to this prospect and President Trump's resolve. This can change a lot," Zelensky wrote in a post on X.
The two heads of state also talked about bilateral defense cooperation, with Zelensky stating that Kiev already prepared a draft agreement on drones, and is ready to "discuss it in detail and conclude it." He went on to thank Trump for his efforts "toward a just and lasting peace."
