Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump have held a phone conversation discussing issues related to Iran and Ukraine, the Kremlin has said, reports UNB.
According to a Kremlin aide, during the call Putin put forward proposals aimed at resolving the conflict over Iran's nuclear programme. He also suggested a temporary ceasefire in Ukraine to coincide with the upcoming anniversary of the end of World War II next month.
Meanwhile, US media outlet Axios reported that Trump has rejected Iran's peace proposal and said the US military blockade of Iranian ports will continue until Tehran agrees to a nuclear deal.
"The blockade is somewhat more effective than the bombing. They are choking like a stuffed pig, and it is going to be worse for them. They can't have a nuclear weapon," Trump was quoted as saying by Axios.
Iran had earlier this week reportedly proposed ending the ongoing conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, while suggesting that nuclear negotiations be postponed to an unspecified future date.
