> The Kremlin says US President Donald Trump told Russian President Vladimir Putin that he wanted to quickly end the war in Ukraine, arguing that peace could enable a broad restoration of US-Russia ties. The hour-long call followed weekend meetings in Moscow and Kyiv by US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to revive stalled peace efforts.
