Trump announced last night (May 17th evening, Beijing Time) that he plans to talk with Russian President Putin on Monday, then talk with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, and subsequently hold a conference call with Zelenskyy and NATO allies.

"I will have a telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin at 10 a.m. on Monday. The topics of discussion include stopping the 'bloody massacre' that causes more than 5,000 Russian and Ukrainian soldiers to die each week, as well as trade. Afterwards, I will talk with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, and then discuss with President Zelenskyy and NATO member countries. I hope this will be a productive day, a ceasefire can be achieved, and this extremely violent war, a war that should never have happened, can end. God bless us all!!!"
