The White House confirmed a crucial phone call between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, focusing on a potential 30-day ceasefire aimed at ending a protracted conflict.
The discussion follows Ukraine's agreement to the American proposal during diplomatic talks in Saudi Arabia, facilitated by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
