US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke for about an hour on Wednesday, the US leader said, a day after he spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

In a social media post, Mr Trump said the call was to “align both Russia and Ukraine in terms of their requests and needs”, as he seeks to bring about a ceasefire between the two countries.
