Trump: There's a great chance of Ukraine-Russia deal this week

US President Donald Trump said on Monday there is a "very good chance" that Russia and Ukraine could reach a deal this week to end the war that has lasted more than three years.

"There's a very good chance," Trump told a reporter when asked if he thought Moscow and Kiev could reach a deal this week.

"We had very good meetings about Ukraine, Russia," he added. His remarks came during the annual Easter Egg Roll event held at the White House.

Regarding the US-Iran nuclear talks, Trump said: "We had very good meetings on Iran."

Regarding trade tensions with the EU, Trump expressed confidence that a solution would be reached, saying: "Ultimately we'll have a deal with everybody."

When asked about reports claiming that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth again shared sensitive details about planned US airstrikes in Yemen in a private Signal group chat, Trump expressed strong support for the defense chief.

"He's doing a great job," Trump said. "Ask the Houthis how he's doing."
