“Discussions” between Trump and Putin next week … about what?

Today, an American envoy expected to the American “CNN” that President Donald Trump will hold talks with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin next week, at a time when Washington is pressuring Moscow to agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine.

“Many things are still required to discuss, and I think the two presidents will take place this week a good and positive discussion,” Trump Steve Whitchov, who met Putin, said for several hours.

“I expect a phone call between the two presidents this week, and we will continue to communicate with Ukraine,” Witkov added.

The Kremlin confirmed on Friday that Putin handed the American delegate a message to Trump about his proposal to a ceasefire in Ukraine.

“When he carries and dies all the information to President Trump, we will determine the date of the conversation,” the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

Kyiv agreed to the principle of an unconditional truce that lasts thirty days if Moscow stops its attacks in eastern Ukraine.

However, the Russian president did not accept any truce, in return, in return, complicated conditions such as Ukraine abandoning five regions that Moscow announced an inclusion, Kiev retracted its efforts to join NATO, and dismantle the current Ukrainian authority.

For his part, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio described the phone call he made with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov as “promising”, in a statement this morning to CBS.

“It is difficult to discuss a permanent end of a war as long as the two parties exchange fire. For this reason, President (Trump) hopes to a ceasefire,” the American minister said.

“If we assume that this is not easy in itself, we will move to the second stage that requires negotiating a more sustainable matter. It will be difficult. It should be done unremitting and making concessions from this party and that, but this must be done. This war cannot continue. The president was evident in this regard, and he does everything he can to put an end to it.”
