On the eve of his Friday Summit with Vladimir Putin, the United States President said Donald Trump said he believed that the Russian president was ready to end the war in Ukraine, but added that reaching peace would probably require the second meeting that includes the Ukrainian president Zelena. Russia has launched a military campaign in Ukraine in February 2022, and if Putin and Zelena meet to talk about a ceasefire, it would be the first time since the beginning of the Ukrainian War.
While Donald Trump said he hoped that the war of Ukraine would reach his end before his conversations with Putin on Alaska, he reduced the immediate ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zlensky and his European allies have intensified their efforts this week to prevent any agreement between the US and Russia, which appeared from the Friday summit on Alaska, leaving Ukraine vulnerable to the future attack.
“I think President Putin will close peace, I think the president will do peace. We’ll see if they’re coming out,” Donald Trump said.
Donald Trump speculated the involvement of more European leaders and said, “I think it will be a good meeting, but more important meetings will be the second meeting we have. We will have a meeting with President Putin, President of Zelenky, and maybe we will bring some of the European leaders.
Trump-Putin Meeting
Trump and Vladimir Putin are ready to have the first meeting since 2021 during their Alaska on Friday, which could discuss ways to end the conflict of Russian-Ukraine.
“It is probably obvious to all that the central theme will be the solution of the crisis of Ukraine,” says Kreml Aide Yuri Ushakov. He added: “There will also be wider issues of ensuring peace and security, as well as urgent international and regional issues.”
Ushakov also mentioned that the discussion was scheduled to start at 11:30 (1930 GMT) and will be made “one per per” between Putin and Trump, only with the presence of their interpreters. “This will be followed by negotiations between delegations that will continue working breakfast,” Ushakov said.
