Trump begins planning for trilateral meeting with Putin and Zelenskyy

United States (US) President Donald Trump confirmed that he would be beginning the preparation steps for a trilateral meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and himself at some point in the near future. Trump's own claims of achieving an immediate peace deal have given way to much softer suggestions that maybe there could be some sort of partial peace arrangement within the weeks to come.
