However, Trump said if he at the negotiating table with Putin and Zelensky, the war would end “within 24 hours. “

The Republic of Moldova is a sovereign state that is consistently pursuing the path of democracy and European integration in line with the will of its citizens.”
Ukrainian officials have yet to publicly respond to Patrushev’s comments.
