Russian President Vladimir Putin voiced optimism on Friday about the potential impact of recent agreements made with U.S. President Donald Trump. He suggested these could serve as a cornerstone for resolving the Ukraine conflict and improving bilateral relations between Russia and the United States.

"I expect that today's agreements will become a reference point, not only for solving the Ukrainian problem, but will also launch the restoration of business-like, pragmatic relations between Russia and the United States," Putin stated. He emphasized the substantial opportunities for Russia and the USA to collaborate in sectors such as energy, technology, space exploration, and Arctic endeavors.
