US President Donald Trump said during a speech at the World Economic Forum that he wants to hold a meeting with Russian Federation leader Vladimir Putin as soon as possible to end the armed conflict in Ukraine.
‘I would very much like to be able to meet with [Vladimir – ed.] Putin soon to put an end to this war. And not just in terms of the economy or anything else, but in terms of millions of lives wasted,’ Donald Trump said.
In addition, the US President added that Vladimir Zelenskyy is ready to make a deal to end the conflict.
Trump also recognised that the new sanctions can not force Moscow to start negotiations with Kiev, but ‘a deal is necessary’.
We will remind, earlier Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Moscow is ready to negotiate with Kiev without preconditions, but on the basis of the Istanbul agreements and the current situation on the front line, stressing the need for dialogue only with the legitimate leadership of the country.
