Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump held a 90-minute call on Iran, Ukraine, and Gulf tensions, discussing ceasefire efforts, diplomacy, and possible US actions on Iranian ports.
Putin and Trump discuss Iran tensions and Ukraine in lengthy phone call as Vladimir Putin held a phone conversation with Donald Trump addressing ongoing conflicts in West Asia and Ukraine, according to statements from the Kremlin. The discussion, confirmed by aide Yuri Ushakov on Wednesday, lasted more than 90 minutes and was described as both “frank” and “businesslike,” reflecting the seriousness of the geopolitical issues involved.
A central topic of the conversation was the situation in Iran and the broader Persian Gulf. Putin reportedly welcomed Trump’s decision to extend a ceasefire involving Iran, emphasizing that the move could provide critical time for diplomatic negotiations and help reduce escalating tensions across the region. The call highlighted mutual concerns about stability in key global energy corridors and the potential consequences of prolonged conflict.
According to a White House official, Trump also discussed strategies with U.S. oil companies to mitigate the economic and logistical impact of a possible long-term U.S. blockade targeting Iranian ports. The potential blockade, which could last for months, is part of broader efforts to pressure Tehran amid ongoing disputes over regional security and nuclear negotiations.
During the conversation, Trump urged Iranian leadership to act swiftly, signaling that diplomatic opportunities remain open but limited. His remarks underscored Washington’s push for a negotiated agreement while maintaining pressure through economic and strategic measures. The exchange between the two leaders reflects continued engagement between the United States and Russia on key international crises, even amid broader tensions in bilateral relations.
