⌨The newspapers extensively report on a significant phone call between Trump and Putin, where they agreed to begin negotiations on Ukraine (ANSA, Avvenire, Corriere, HuffPost, Il Fatto, Il Sole 24 Ore, La Stampa, Libero, Sky TG24). Putin extended an invitation to Trump to visit Moscow, and Trump subsequently called Zelensky (Il Fatto, La Stampa). The US position appears to shift, with statements calling Ukraine's NATO membership "unrealistic" and Zelensky mentioning a "Plan B" (ANSA, HuffPost).
