According to the American leader, as of today, the teams of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin are allegedly interested in reaching agreements, but, they say, in different ways.
"I think they want to do it now, and I think Russia wants to do it. But every time one wants to do it, the other one doesn't," the White House chief complained.
Donald Trump also does not hide that ending the Russian-Ukrainian war has turned out to be a really difficult issue.
