US President Donald Trump has revealed that his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, wished him a happy birthday during a phone conversation on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the phone call, the US president took to his Truth Social to provide details.<\/p>\n

“President Putin called this morning to very nicely wish me a Happy Birthday, but to more importantly, talk about Iran, a country he knows very well. We talked at length,”<\/em> Trump, who turned 79 on Saturday, wrote.<\/p>\n

The two presidents spent “much less time”<\/em> discussing the Ukraine conflict, he noted, adding that the topic “will be for next week.”<\/em> “The call lasted approximately one hour. He feels, as do I, this war in Israel-Iran should end, to which I explained, his war should also end,”<\/em> Trump wrote.<\/p>\n

According to Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov, the conversation between Putin and Trump was “meaningful, frank, and most importantly, very useful.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Putin condemned Israel’s strikes on Iran, noting that they occurred just before the sixth round of nuclear negotiations between Tehran and Washington, originally scheduled for June 15, would have begun. <\/p>\n

“Despite such a complicated situation, the Russian and American presidents didn’t rule out a return to the negotiating track on the Iranian nuclear program,”<\/em> Ushakov added.<\/p>\n

The presidential aide also confirmed that Putin had extended his birthday wishes to Trump, noting that both leaders have “expressed their satisfaction with the personal relationships that allow [them] to communicate in a businesslike manner,”<\/em> as well as to “seek solutions to pressing issues on the bilateral and international agenda, no matter how complex these issues may be.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
