China News Service, Moscow, September 8 (Xinhua) Russian Presidential Assistant Ushakov said on the 8th that Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Trump had another phone call that day, and "the content was constructive and very candid."

Ushakov said that the call lasted for an hour, and the leaders of the two countries exchanged views on the results of the visits to Moscow and Kiev by the US presidential envoy Witkov and Trump's son-in-law Kushner from September 5 to 6. "Both sides spoke positively of the results of the US representative's visit and will continue to work through this and other channels."

Trump has made it clear that he hopes to end the conflict quickly, which will open up impressive and far-reaching prospects for the rapid and comprehensive restoration of US-Russian relations, especially have a positive impact on bilateral trade and economic ties and bring huge benefits to both countries. "Trump hopes for a breakthrough during his presidency."

Putin supports this view and believes that there is potential for a constructive partnership between the two major powers Russia and the United States. He appreciated the mediation efforts made by the United States and Trump himself to find a solution to the conflict in Ukraine. During the call, Putin analyzed the situation in the special military operation area and prospects for achieving the goals, and talked about practical measures that the United States can take to quickly end the military operation.

Putin also emphasized that Russia has no aggressive plans against Europe. Spreading nonsense about the Russian threat is nothing more than an excuse for European countries to increase their support for Ukraine and increase their own military spending.

The two leaders agreed to continue cooperation on humanitarian issues, including the exchange of detainees and convicted persons. The two parties agreed to keep in touch and will call in a timely manner when necessary.
