- The Kremlin said on Thursday that a report in the Wall Street Journal which said U.S. President Donald Trump had told European leaders that President Vladimir Putin did not want to end the war in Ukraine contrasted with its own knowledge.

The Journal said Trump had briefed European leaders after talking to Putin by phone on Monday and said Putin wanted to keep fighting in Ukraine because he thought he was winning.

"We know what Trump stated to Putin. We don't know what Trump stated to the Europeans after that phone call. We know President Trump's official statement. What we know contrasts with what was written in the article you mentioned," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
