Ukraine Russia Online: Ukraine and Russia, according to Trump, are very close to the agreement
Trump claims that Ukraine and Russia They are « very close to the agreement » to end the war. He called for a very high level to meet.
This is reported by AP.
Shortly after arriving in Rome at the funeral of Pope Francis on his social network Truth Social wrote that it was « a good day in terms of interviews and meetings with Russia and Ukraine ». His special envoy Steve Witkoff visited Moscow on Friday to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin.
« They are very close to the agreement and both sides should now meet at a very high level to make it to the end, » the US President said.
« Most of the main points are agreed. Stop the bloodshed immediately. We will be wherever we need to help end this cruel and nonsensical war! »
Trump’s statement was followed by saying on Friday’s published interview for Time magazine that « Crimea will stay with Russia », which is the latest example of how it puts pressure on Ukraine to make concessions and end war while the country is still besieged, AP writes.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj on Friday confirmed his position on the Crimea Peninsula, which Russia annexed in 2014. « Our attitude has not changed: Only the Ukrainian people have the right to decide which territory belongs to Ukraine.

The progress on the end of the war, within a month of Trump’s return to the White House, seemed unreachable and his previous claims of an immediate breakthrough did not fulfill, AP notes. Russia continued to bomb Ukraine on Friday and killed three people with a drone attack on the apartment building in the southeast of the country.
Trump also demanded on Friday on social networks that the Ukrainian president « immediately » signed a long postponed agreement that would provide the United States with access to the mineral resources of his country. (TASR)
