The incoming US president said preparations for a meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin were already underway.
Donald Trump, who has previously said he could end the war in Ukraine “within 24 hours,” said details of the top-level talks were still to be determined.
The Kremlin said Putin was ready for talks with Trump. “The president has repeatedly stated his openness to contact with international leaders, including the US president, including Donald Trump,” Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
