About This Trend

Russia and Ukraine are two Eastern European countries involved in an ongoing conflict. Russia, led by President Vladimir Putin, and Ukraine, led by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, have been engaged in a war that has garnered international attention.

The current reason for the trend is that Donald Trump, the US president, has announced after a two-hour call with Vladimir Putin that Russia and Ukraine will “immediately” start ceasefire negotiations, potentially marking a significant step towards ending the war. .
