Moscow has previously offered to take enriched uranium out of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ushakov told reporters Putin had proposed the temporary ceasefire in Ukraine for celebrations on May 9 to mark the Soviet Union\u2019s part in the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War Two. He said Trump reacted positively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ushakov added that Trump, in a friendly and businesslike conversation lasting over 1-1\/2 hours, had said he believed a
