President Donald Trump revealed that he had a conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin, which he said was "not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace" between the Kremlin and Ukraine.

“We discussed the attack on Russia's docked airplanes, by Ukraine, and also various other attacks that have been taking place by both sides,” Trump said after his 75-minute conversation in a post shared on his Truth Social account. “President Putin did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields.”

Trump said he also discussed Iran with Putin, who suggested Russia could potentially get involved with in sealing a revised nuclear deal.

“I stated to President Putin that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and, on this, I believe that we were in agreement,” Trump wrote. “President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran and that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion. It is my opinion that Iran has been slowwalking their decision on this very important matter, and we will need a definitive answer in a very short period of time!”

Trump had previously given Putin a a hard two-week deadline to end the Kremlin's war with Ukraine days before Ukrainian officials wiping out dozens of nuclear bombers and other aircraft on air bases deep inside the country in what pro-Moscow military bloggers called "the Russian Pearl Harbor" on Sunday (June 1). The attacks took place one day before the two countries were reported to potentially discuss cease-fire talks backed by the United States in Istanbul.

Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) carried out the attacks using first-person-view (FPV) drones to strike 41 Russian heavy bombers and other warplanes at four different airfields within the neighboring country. The cost of the destroyed aircraft, which was made by Russian manufactures no longer in existence, is estimated to be about $7 billion, according to Kyiv officials.

The Russian nuclear bombers destroyed in the attacks were reported to have been designed to obliterate the United States and Europe in the event of an all-out war, according to the New York Post. Ukraine officials claimed that the Kremlin aircraft was converted and being used to pummel its country with cruise missiles since the invasion launched by Putin in February 2022.

Kyiv officials claimed to have destroyed more than one-third of Russia's strategic bombers, which included TU-95 "Bear" nuclear bombers, TU-22 "Backfire" fast-attack bombers and A-50 "Mainstay" command-and-control jets, during the mission.
