US President-elect, Donald Trump reportedly held his first post-election call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin last week and warned him against ramping up in Ukraine.
The incoming president took note of US military power in Europe while seeking to discourage the Kremlin dictator from intensifying Russia’s war in Ukraine during the Thursday chat, sources told the Washington Post.
Trump also expressed interest in a follow-up talk, the outlet said.
The day before, on Wednesday, Trump, 78, spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on the phone as well, though details of their conversation were not known other than Trump assuring Zelensky he had his support. Tech guru Elon Musk was on that call.
Both Putin and Zelensky praised Trump after his victory against Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday.
“He behaved, in my opinion, in a very correct way, courageously, like a real man,” Putin said last week, according to a translation. “I take this opportunity to congratulate him on his election.
“What was said about the desire to restore relations with Russia, to bring about the end of the Ukrainian crisis, in my opinion, this deserves attention at least,” Putin said.
Zelensky had similarly praised Trump after his win.
“We look forward to an era of a strong United States of America under President Trump’s decisive leadership. We rely on continued strong bipartisan support for Ukraine in the United States,” the former comedian-turned-president said in a statement last week.
When asked about the reported call between Trump and Putin, Trump-Vance Campaign Communications Director Steven Cheung told The Post, “We do not comment on private calls between President Trump and other world leaders.
“President Trump won a historic election decisively and leaders from around the world know America will return to prominence on the world stage. That is why leaders have begun the process of developing stronger relationships with the 45th and 47th president,” Cheung said in a statement.
