Russia reveals the truth about Putin and Trump’s talks… Will the Ukraine war end?
This comes after the US President-elect said that he is preparing to hold a meeting to “end” the war in Ukraine.
Putin and Trump talks
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov noted, “The president has repeatedly expressed his openness to holding contacts with world leaders, including Donald Trump.
He praised Trump’s willingness to solve problems through dialogue, and Peskov continued, saying: “There are no conditions required. What is necessary is the mutual desire and political will to solve problems through dialogue,” which he said the US president-elect possesses.
He continued: “Donald Trump is showing his desire to solve problems through dialogue. We welcome that… and we proceed from a mutual desire to meet,” stressing that there are no specific plans to hold a dialogue currently.
Ending the conflict in Ukraine
Trump said Thursday that he is preparing for a meeting with Vladimir Putin to “end” the conflict in Ukraine, as part of his promises during his election campaign to end the conflict in Ukraine “within 24 hours.”
He called for an “immediate ceasefire” and negotiations to end the war, while Putin expressed his readiness to negotiate on the condition of taking into account “the facts on the ground,” as Russian forces are making progress on the eastern front and now control about 20 percent of the country’s area.
Putin demanded that Russia retain the Ukrainian lands it announced its annexation, and the Russian President also called on Ukraine to abandon its desire to join NATO.
Repercussions of the Russia-Ukraine war
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said that it “does not see anything new” in Trump’s comments about a possible meeting with Putin, while Foreign Ministry spokesman Georgi Tykhi said: “We all in Ukraine want to end the war in a way that is fair for Ukraine, and we see that President Trump is also determined to end the war.” “.
He reported that Kiev is preparing to hold talks with American officials “immediately” within ten days of Trump taking office, in which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will participate.
