US President Donald Trump said Thursday that a ceasefire in southern Syria showed that his talks with Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin last weekend had produced results.

"By having dialogue we were able to have a ceasefire. It's going to go on for a while and frankly we're working on a second ceasefire in a very rough part of Syria," Trump said. "And if we get that and a few more, all of a sudden you're going to have no bullets being fired in Syria. And that would be a wonderful thing."
