Details: A reporter asked Trump about the possibility of holding elections in Ukraine before the start of summer. The US president responded that Russia wants to reach a deal to end the war, so Zelenskyy needs to "get moving".

Quote: "Russia wants to make a deal, and Zelenskyy is going to have to get moving. Otherwise he is going to miss a great opportunity. He has to move."

Background:

• Trump's remarks come amid media reports that US and Ukrainian negotiators discussed the possibility of signing a peace agreement in March and holding elections in Ukraine in May.
• Zelenskyy said earlier that the United States has proposed ending Russia's war against Ukraine by the summer, as they will have a different priority later – the US congressional elections.
• A new round of Ukraine-US-Russia talks will take place in Geneva on 17-18 February.
