"Donald Trump was asked about 'working groups' for the Ukraine conflict, mentioned in the readout from the the Russian side after his call with Vladimir Putin, as he held a presser with Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday. He said that Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner and War Secretary Pete Hegseth would be on his - with Zelensky added that 'Ruslan Umerov and also Deputy Minister Kyslytsya and also General Hnatov' would be on his team. "That working group, by the way, importantly, will also then be working with Russia. Okay?" added Trump. "Because to work with ourselves doesn't really solve much of a problem. So they'll be working with Russia." The pair were set to discuss Zelensky’s own revised version of a ‘20-point peace plan’, which began as a 28-point US proposal- and which the Ukrainian president claimed was ‘90 per cent ready’. Earlier, Trump said he had held a ‘good and very productive’ call with Vladimir Putin. The Russian side confirmed it lasted over an hour - and the two would speak after the Zelensky meeting as well. Presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said that the leaders had agreed that a 'temporary ceasefire', which he said was backed by the Europeans and Ukrainians, 'will only prolong conflict' and that Kiev 'needs to be bold'. Talks between Trump and Zelensky were expected to cover crunch issues including territorial concessions and ‘security guarantees’. Trump said on Friday that Zelensky ‘doesn’t have anything until I approve it’ - while their infamous February meeting at the White House ended in huge row that saw the US leader ejecting his opposite number from the building, saying he didn’t ‘have the cards’ and accusing him of ‘gambling with World War 3’.
