Trump allows changes in the territory of Ukraine following the peace agreement.
Reporter Ross Dutta asked Donald Trump if he expected the war to end in a free and independent Ukraine.
"I think we'll get there. I think it will happen, and Ukraine will end up looking a little different," the US president replied in an interview with 60 Minutes.
Trump also expressed confidence that a deal was close. He cited the mutual hostility between the Russian and Ukrainian leaders as the main obstacle.
"I believe that this military conflict will end, and end soon. "And the only reason it ended is because of me," he said.
Douth asked who the American president trusts more. Putin or Volodymyr Zelensky. Trump declined to choose, saying he gets along with both.
