The White House announced Tuesday that a bilateral meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy could be coming soon.

"President Trump spoke with President Putin by phone, and he agreed to begin the next phase of the peace process, a meeting between President Putin and President Zelenskyy, which would be followed, if necessary, by a trilateral meeting between President Putin, President Zelensky and President Trump," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said.

It comes after Trump met with both leaders in recent days as he pushes toward ending the years-long war in Ukraine. Politico reports the White House is eyeing Budapest as a potential site for the peace talks.
