Jin10 reported on May 20 that the Kremlin announced that Putin and Trump have both expressed support for normalizing U.S.-Russia relations. Trump and Putin agreed to continue dialogue on all issues and intend to arrange a meeting in the future, with the location yet to be determined. When discussing the prospects of relations with Russia, Trump sincerely expressed his hope for a mutually beneficial relationship between the two countries. The two sides discussed the exchange of 9 Russian prisoners for 9 American prisoners, which is part of improving bilateral relations. Although Trump emphasized the desire to reach a relevant agreement as soon as possible, the two sides did not discuss a timetable for a ceasefire in Ukraine during the call.
