President Donald Trump has told his European counterparts he has agreed with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s demand that Ukraine make territorial concessions to end the countries’ roughly three-year-long war, according to multiple news reports Saturday.

Among the news outlets to report on Trump’s purported decision was The Los Angeles Times, based on information from a “European official.”

Trump, after meeting Putin on Friday in Alaska, also emerged adopting Putin’s position that ceasefire negotiations be put off in favor of more comprehensive talks.

Trump is set to meet Monday at the White House with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.
