Vladimir Putin has reportedly said Donald Trump told him Ukraine would take part in future peace talks.

The Russian president is quoted by Interfax and Tass agencies as saying he is ready to get back to negotiations on Ukraine, which is a priority for Russia. He also praised the US-Russia talks, saying their purpose was to increase trust between the two countries, and that the two sides acted without “bias or judgment”.
