This was stated by his spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt during a press conference on Thursday.

“The president is extremely frustrated with both sides in this war,” she says.

"He doesn't want more talk. He wants action. He wants this war to end," she says.

According to Reuters, she says that it is appropriate to send a representative to Europe this weekend, but it is a given that there is a real chance for peace.

– The president is tired of meetings just for the sake of meetings, says Leavitt.
