00:00First, I'd like to reiterate what the President said earlier following his call with President

00:04Zelensky this morning.

00:05He said he just completed a very good telephone call with President Zelensky.

00:10It lasted approximately one hour.

00:12Much of the discussion was based on the call made yesterday with President Putin in order

00:16to align both Russia and Ukraine in terms of their requests and needs.

00:20We are very much on track.

00:22President Trump also asked President Zelensky about the children who had gone missing from

00:26Ukraine during the war, including the ones that had been abducted.

00:30And President Trump promised to work closely with both parties to help make sure those

00:34children were returned home.

00:36They agreed all parties must continue the effort to make a ceasefire work.

00:40President Trump also discussed Ukraine's electrical supply and nuclear power plants.

00:45He said that the United States could be very helpful in running those plants with its electricity

00:49and utility expertise.

00:52American ownership of those plants would be the best protection for that infrastructure

00:55and support for Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

00:58We're looking at a lasting ceasefire.

01:00Right now we're at a partial ceasefire.

01:02But again, the President is sending his highly skilled, intelligent and experienced team

01:07to Saudi Arabia later this week to continue fighting for peace in this conflict.

01:11And I would just reiterate one more time, we have never been closer to peace than we

01:15are today.

01:16Thank you very much, everybody.
