## Trump talked to Putin, told Russian leader not to escalate in Ukraine ##

President-elect Donald Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin for the first time since his election win. The call took place from Trump's Florida resort. He urged Putin not to escalate the war in Ukraine, reminding him of the U.S. military presence in Europe.


Trump expressed interest in further discussions for peace in Europe and the resolution of the Ukraine war. He previously stated his goal of ending the conflict quickly but provided no specifics. He indicated a potential deal allowing Russia to retain some territory.


Trump has contacted about 70 world leaders since his election, including Ukraine’s President Zelensky.


UPDATE: Putin and Donald Trump, who won the US elections, have not yet spoken on the phone, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
