The Kremlin on Monday confirmed Russian President Vladimir Putin and US counterpart Donald Trump would speak by phone on Tuesday.

"That is indeed the case. There is such a conversation being prepared for Tuesday," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters including AFP, without commenting on what the two leaders would discuss.

Trump told reporters earlier that "a lot of work" had been done between the two sides on settling the Ukraine conflict and that he would speak to Putin on Tuesday.

Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff travelled to Moscow last week to present the details of a joint US-Ukrainian ceasefire plan that envisages a 30-day pause in hostilities.

Putin said he agreed with the idea of a ceasefire but said there were "serious questions" about how it would be implemented that he wanted to discuss with Trump.
