Donald Trump is due to speak with Vladimir Putin over the phone any moment now.
Sky News defence and security analyst Michael Clarke expects the conversation will focus on arranging a summit.
A little earlier today, the White House said Trump was open to meeting the Russian leader.
But a meeting between the pair is not being prepared at the moment, Russian state media cited the Kremlin as saying.
Putin wants a summit quickly to "emerge from his pariah status" – but the sooner he’s brought to one, the more pressure he’ll be under to agree to a ceasefire, said Clarke.
