Trump advised Putin not to escalate the war against Ukraine and reminded him of Washington’s significant military presence in Europe.
The recently elected 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump, had his first phone conversation with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. This was reported by WP on Sunday, November 10.
According to the publication, Trump advised the Russian president not to escalate the war against Ukraine. It also reminded him of Washington’s significant military presence in Europe, said a person familiar with the call.
During the conversation, the parties discussed the goal of peace on the European continent, and Trump expressed interest in further talks to discuss “an early solution to Russia’s war against Ukraine.”
During his presidential campaign, Trump said he would immediately end the Russian war against Ukraine, but did not elaborate on how he would do it. He has privately signaled that he would support a deal in which Russia keeps some of the captured territory, and during the call he briefly mentioned land issues, people familiar with the matter said.
We previously reported that Donald Trump, who won the US election, may try to negotiate with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. But such an agreement is unlikely to be in the interest of Europe and Ukraine. Czech President Petr Pavel announced this on Friday.
Dialogue has been established between Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky and US President-elect Donald Trump. The teams will start organizing their meeting.
Let’s remember that during the election campaign, Trump repeatedly promised to quickly end the war in Ukraine.
