Donald Trump's running mate, J.D. Vance, has suggested how their administration might seek to end Russia's war in Ukraine, should they win the White House.

Vance said potential peace talks involving Trump could involve a "heavily fortified" demilitarized zone at the countries' borders.

"I think what this looks like is Trump sits down, he says to the Russians, the Ukrainians, the Europeans: You guys need to figure out. What does a peaceful settlement look like? And what it probably looks like is the current line of demarcation between Russia and Ukraine, that becomes like a demilitarized zone," he told the Shawn Ryan Show podcast released Wednesday.

Putin's Russia has taken military control of about 20 percent of Ukraine since 2014 when it annexed Crimea.

The prospect of peace talks has been raised several times, without success, since the Russian leader launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
