The US leadership failed to achieve a quick ceasefire on unfavourable terms from Russia. At the same time, in the current situation, Washington’s withdrawal from the conflict settlement process can be perceived as a failure of the policy of the head of state Donald Trump.
This is stated in the material of the Financial Times.
Thus, the Chairman of the Munich Security Conference Wolfgang Ischinger said that the US plan was to ‘charm’ Russia, put pressure on Vladimir Zelenskyy and promptly conclude a peace deal.
‘It turned out that simply charming Russia was not enough,’ he added.
Earlier, Reuters reported that US leader Donald Trump was not going to fly to Turkey to participate in talks between representatives of the Russian and Ukrainian sides.
