Putin and Trump to speak by phone in their 6th conversation this year
- On July 3, 2025, at 10 a.m. Eastern Time, the leader of the United States, Donald Trump, held a phone conversation with Russia’s Vladimir Putin, marking their sixth discussion publicly disclosed this year.
- The call followed a Pentagon decision days earlier to pause some weapons shipments to Ukraine due to concerns over U.S. military stockpiles amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict.
- During the nearly hour-long call, the leaders discussed Ukraine, Iran, Middle East issues, and potential bilateral projects, with Putin stressing resolving differences politically and diplomatically.
- Putin wished Trump success on implementing his $4.5 trillion tax and spending cut bill, and Kremlin adviser Yuri Ushakov described the conversation as "frank, businesslike and concrete."
- The call reflected efforts to mend strained U.S.-Russia ties, but Ushakov noted the leaders may have few common topics, and Trump reported no progress toward a Ukraine cease-fire.
