Trump pushes Ukraine into compromises - peace in sight?

In a decisive phase of negotiations on a raw material agreement between the USA and Ukraine, President Donald Trump expressed optimistic expectations on his return trip on board the Air Force One. "I think some very big things could happen this week," said Trump. The background to this discussions is the continuing war in Ukraine, for which Trump had partially blamed in the past of Ukraine. An agreement is now being aimed for that could include the provision of mineral resources in exchange for military and secret service support. Trump also called for the willingness to compromise from Ukraine and explained that peace should only be achieved through negotiations, which the Ukrainian delegation in Saudi Arabia should emphasize on Tuesday, such as Vol.at reported.

Trump also announced that the suspension of intelligence information to Ukraine canceled. "We are about to end the break when exchanging intelligence information," said the President. This information is crucial for the Ukrainian defense against Russian attacks, especially with regard to rocket actions. The background for this reluctance was a scandal in the Oval Office between Trump and the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj, which led to a temporary stop of military support. Negotiations in Saudi Arabia are viewed as a turning point in order to restore relationships and reach an agreement on the conditions for a peace agreement, according to ABC News .

In addition, negotiations seem to be accompanied by a certain pressure, since both the USA and Europe expect a clear position from Ukraine. The Ukrainian leadership repeatedly expressed the desire for peace, while Russia apparently urges the negotiating position weakening. The interplay of diplomatic pressure and military conflicts could be crucial for whether an agreement between the war is achievable or whether violence in the region will continue to escalate.
