One of the sources warned that schedules often change. They said discussions about a suitable time for the call between the Republican Party's presidential candidate and the Ukrainian president have been ongoing for some time.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that he could settle the war in Ukraine in one day. How he plans to achieve peace is still unclear.
