US Vice President JD Vance stated that President Trump might reconsider his stance on Ukraine based on the progress of negotiations.  

On Thursday, Trump announced a series of high-level discussions involving officials from Russia, the US, and Ukraine, and emphasized that upcoming talks between Washington, Moscow, and Kiev will determine whether a resolution to the Ukraine conflict is feasible.

"President Trump could say, look, we do not want this thing, we might not like this thing, but we are willing to put it back on the table if the Russians are not being good negotiating partners, or there are things that are very important to Ukrainians that we might want to take off the table," The Wall Street Journal cited Vance as saying. 

Meanwhile, the US special envoy for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, stated that Western nations are not necessarily required to recognize the territories Ukraine has lost.

"You’re not going back to 2014 and the border they had right before they went into Crimea, the Russians went into Crimea. That’s understandable, you know. So I think what you’re going to have to have is some type of agreement on potentially the loss of territory. Well, look, you don’t necessarily have to acknowledge that," Kellogg said in an interview with Fox News.

This comes after Trump and Putin discussed a broad range of topics thoroughly in a historic phone call, including the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Middle East, energy, and artificial intelligence.

According to Trump, he and Putin had agreed to have their respective teams initiate negotiations immediately regarding the Ukraine war and how to find a peaceful resolution.

The US President also stated that he would be reaching out to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to inform him about the progress made in their discussion. "We will begin by calling President [Volodymyr] Zelensky, of Ukraine, to inform him of the conversation, something which I will be doing right now," Trump wrote.

In addition to Ukraine, the leaders discussed potential future visits to each other’s countries. Trump emphasized their commitment to fostering closer cooperation by working closely and visiting each other's nations.

"We'll meet in Saudi Arabia," he told reporters at the White House, hours after he announced the telephone conversation with the Russian leader.
