Trump-Putin's 2-Hour Call Had No Mention of Ukraine Aid? In a high-stakes two-hour phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, the U.S. and Russian leaders discussed a range of issues, but Trump insists Ukraine aid was never brought up. Despite the Kremlin later demanding an end to foreign military aid to Ukraine as a condition for a ceasefire, Trump told Fox News that Putin never personally raised the issue during their conversation. The call, which took place on March 18, saw Putin agree to a 30-day pause on attacks on Ukraineâs energy infrastructure but reject the broader U.S.-proposed ceasefire. Trump described the discussion as "a great call", focusing instead on trade, U.S.-Russia relations, and rare earth minerals.
