Earlier Saturday, Trump also announced a “full and immediate” ceasefire in the brewing war between India and Pakistan.

Completing the trio of good news, Russian President Putin said he was “in the mood for serious talks with Ukraine,” and suggested talks “without preconditions” in Turkey next week.
