WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said he expected Russian President Vladimir Putin to release over 1,000 Ukrainian prisoners soon after a trilateral meeting was set up with Ukrainian leader Voldymyr Zelenskiy.
“I think you’ll see that President Putin really would like to do something also,” Trump said at the start of a meeting with Zelenskiy and seven European leaders, forecasting some “really positive moves” after a trilateral meeting was agreed.
“I know there’s over 1,000 prisoners, and I know they’re going to release them. Maybe they’re going to release them very soon, like immediately, which I think is great,” Trump said.
