Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday he hopes to meet next week with U.S. President Donald Trump, possibly in the United Arab Emirates. The news came on the eve of a White House deadline for Moscow to show progress toward ending the 3-year-old war in Ukraine.
 
Asked who initiated the meeting, Putin said that didn’t matter and “both sides expressed an interest.”
 
Speaking of the possible involvement of Zelenskyy in future talks, Putin said he has mentioned several times that he wasn’t against it, adding: “It’s a possibility, but certain conditions need to be created” for it to happen.
 
Meanwhile, Ukrainians voiced pessimism regarding a possible in-person meeting, saying,  “It seems to me that to trust Putin is not to respect oneself. He understands everything only from a position of strength."
