Trump announced when he expects to reach an agreement on ending the war in Ukraine.

U.S. President Donald Trump expressed hope that Ukraine and Russia would soon be able to reach an agreement to end the war.

He wrote this on his social media.

I hope Russia and Ukraine will reach an agreement this week. After that, both countries will begin to do great business with the thriving United States of America and make fortunes! - noted the American leader.

Trump did not specify the details of a possible agreement and also did not mention the 30-day ceasefire proposed by Ukraine and the U.S. State Department.

In his statement, the American president effectively commented for the first Time on the ongoing discussion regarding the continuation of the truce between Ukraine and Russia after Easter.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky previously reported that Russia violated the truce announced by Putin during Easter more than 2,000 times in a day. According to Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi, Russian troops conducted 67 assault actions, 1,355 shellings, and 673 FPV drone attacks.

Zelensky proposed to refrain from any strikes with long-range drones and missiles on civilian infrastructure for at least 30 days with the possibility of extension.

The U.S. State Department supported the idea of continuing the truce after Easter. 'We would like it to continue after Sunday, April 20. It is high time to stop the death and destruction and end this war,' - said the State Department spokesperson.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha noted that the Ukrainian side proposed to extend the ceasefire for 30 days, but Russia did not respond to this proposal.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reported that Putin has not ordered the continuation of the 'Easter truce,' which is planned to end at midnight on April 21.
