Details: Trump initially evaded answering the journalist's question about Putin's conditions, but she asked again later: "Are Putin's terms acceptable to you?"

Quote from Trump: "No, they [Putin's proposals – ed.] are not acceptable."

More details: Trump reiterated that he would end the war in Ukraine if re-elected, as he regularly does on the campaign trail, but did not provide any specifics on how he would do so.

Background:

On 14 June, Putin made up new "conditions for the start of peace talks": Ukrainian troops must withdraw from all four Ukrainian oblasts (Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk), and Kyiv must declare that it had no plans to join NATO.

It is also worth noting that Trump's advisers presented him with their plan to end the war in Ukraine. It outlines that Trump may cut off military aid to Ukraine if it refuses to hold peace talks, while Moscow will be warned that any refusal to negotiate will lead to increased support for Kyiv.
