Putin asema Russia 'iko tayari kwa mazungumzo' na Donald Trump kuhusu Ukraine.
Rais wa Russia Vladimir Putin alisema yuko "tayari kwa mazungumzo" na Rais wa Marekani Donald Trump kuhusu jinsi ya kumaliza vita nchini Ukraine.
Putin alitoa maoni hayo mwanzoni mwa wiki wakati wa mahojiano kwenye televisheni ya taifa ya Russia.
"Tunaamini kauli za rais wa sasa kuhusu utayari wake wa kufanya kazi pamoja. Daima tuko wazi kwa hili na tuko tayari kwa mazungumzo," Putin alisema Ijumaa wakati wa mahojiano.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said he is "ready for negotiations" with U.S. President Donald Trump about how to end the war in Ukraine.
Putin made the comments earlier in the week during an interview on Russian state television.
"We believe the current president's statements about his readiness to work together. We are always open to this and ready for negotiations," Putin said Friday during the interview.
"It would be better for us to meet, based on the realities of today, to talk calmly."
Putin in February 2022 launched a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine that remains ongoing.
In comments made in December, the Russian leader said in hindsight, he should have begun the invasion even earlier.
