Trump considers attending Ukraine-Russia talks in Turkey

By our Special Correspondent

US President Donald Trump has said he is open to attending the potential peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in Turkey on Thursday, as the US ramps up pressure on Moscow and Kyiv to bring an end to the three-year conflict.

Trump is visiting the Gulf this week, making stops in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, for his first overseas trip since the start of his second term. He said he could detour to Turkey “if I thought it would be helpful.”
