Former President Donald Trump is urging Russian President Vladimir Putin to make peace with Ukraine, warning he’ll be “very unhappy” if the war drags on. “This has gone on far too long. People are dying every day. I want it stopped—now,” he told reporters.
Since the war began in 2022, tens of thousands have been killed and millions forced from their homes. Russia says it’s open to talks but blames Ukraine’s “unrealistic demands,” while Kyiv insists any deal must protect its sovereignty.
Trump’s comments stirred debate—supporters praised him for pushing peace, while critics doubt his influence. With the war driving global instability and rising costs, his call reflects both the urgency of ending the conflict and America’s stake in it.
