Trump made the bombshell announcement in a lengthy post to his Truth Social account. 

He also said the two leaders agreed they will visit each other's countries soon.

'We want to stop the millions of deaths taking place in the War with Russia/Ukraine. President Putin even used my very strong Campaign motto of, 'COMMON SENSE.' We both believe very strongly in it. We agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other's Nations,' Trump wrote.

The president said his next call is with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. 

'We have also agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately, and we will begin by calling President Zelenskyy, of Ukraine, to inform him of the conversation, something which I will be doing right now,' Trump noted.

He vowed to end the war. 

'Millions of people have died in a War that would not have happened if I were President, but it did happen, so it must end. No more lives should be lost!,' he said.
