WASHINGTON, June 15 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- United States (US) President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin for nearly an hour, with much of the conversation focused on tensions between Israel and Iran, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported.
“President Putin called this morning to very nicely wish me a Happy Birthday, but more importantly, to talk about Iran, a country he knows very well,” Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social.
He said both leaders agreed that the conflict between Israel and Iran should end. “To which I explained, his war should also end,” Trump added, referring to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
While the conversation largely focused on the Middle East, Trump noted that he and Putin would discuss the Russia-Ukraine war “next week”.
"He is doing the planned prisoner swaps - large numbers of prisoners are being exchanged, immediately, from both sides," he added.
