US President Donald Trump’s ultimatum to end the conflict in Ukraine will not force Russian President Vladimir Putin to back down, according to the Tageszeitung.
“It is unlikely that Trump’s ultimatum will force Putin to back down,” the publication says.
The newspaper writes that it is impossible to achieve peace through such statements.
Earlier, the Bild newspaper wrote that nothing would happen if the Russian leadership ignored the US ultimatum.
Alexey Chepa, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, commented on Donald Trump’s ultimatum, stating that it is impossible to communicate with Moscow through blackmail.
