The White House believes that US President Donald Trump is determined to end Russia's war against Ukraine, and the world is now "on the 10th yard line" of peace.
"We are on the 10th yard line of peace and we have never been closer to a peace agreement than we are right now at this moment. And the president, as you know, is determined to do this," said Caroline Leavitt, the White House Press Secretary, the Telegraph reports.
The White House spokeswoman was asked about the possibility of imposing further sanctions on Russia, where she emphasized that Trump "has floated the idea and is certainly prepared to do so if necessary."
At the same time, Leavitt said he will not "get ahead" of the US president in announcing specific measures.
Trump plans to speak with Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, March 18, to discuss ending the war in Ukraine.
Before that, Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff visited Russia and met with Putin to discuss the US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire.
The Kremlin stated that "additional signals" were sent to Trump through Witkoff. /Telegraph
