US President-elect Donald Trump and Russia n President Vladimir Putin may hold a phone conversation in the coming days or weeks.
Trump recognises the fact that the idea of retaking territories held by Russia is unrealistic, and others are starting to understand this too, the national security advisor designate added. "Everybody knows that this has to end somehow diplomatically. I just do not think it is realistic to say we are going to expel every Russian from every inch of Ukrainian soil. Even Crimea, President Trump has acknowledged that reality. And I think it has been a huge step forward that the entire world is acknowledging that reality," Waltz said.
