President Trump intends to meet in person with President Vladimir Putin of Russia as soon as next week, Fox News has learned. 

Trump then plans to follow shortly afterward with a meeting between himself, Putin and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine.

News of the expected meeting came hours after U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff had a “high productive” meeting with Putin on Wednesday. 

“Great progress was made!” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Afterwards, I updated some of our European Allies. Everyone agrees this War must come to a close, and we will work towards that in the days and weeks to come. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
