Separately, US, Ukrainian, and European officials met in Miami to discuss ending the fighting.

## Disagreement on conversation details

While the Kremlin stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin received US proposals on de-escalation measures with understanding, one unrated outlet reported that during the call, Putin would have opened himself to a possible military de-escalation. Another unrated outlet suggested that the discussion between the two leaders lasted so long because "no one wanted to be the first to close."

## What the coverage left out

None of the left-rated reports analysed mentioned that Donald Trump conveyed ideas to Vladimir Putin regarding de-escalation measures in Ukraine. The reports that did cover the story did not include details about the specific nature of Trump's proposals or Putin's response beyond receiving them 'with understanding'.
