While speaking to reporters outside the White House, President Trump revealed Vladimir Putin had asked to be peacemaker while the Ukraine-Russia war rages.

Donald Trump appeared to rebuff Vladimir Putin's offer to mediate in the Israel-Iran conflict, saying the Russian president should end his own war in Ukraine first.

Vladimir Putin is eyeing the conflict between Israel and Iran as an opportunity to thrust himself to the forefront of the international stage, more than three years into his invasion of Ukraine.
