Important moments before the Trump Putin meet an overview
President Donald Trump was unable to negotiate a peace treaty between Ukraine and Russia, even though he promised the war on the first day to end his second term. He hopes that a well -expected meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin will help change this.
The first meeting in the second term
Trump personally meets Putin in Alaska on Friday, the first direct meeting between the two guides during Trump's second term. The US President has spoken to the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj several times, including a tense public encounter in February. His efforts are also part of calls with both guides and the use of high -ranking envoys to support an armistice negotiation. Nevertheless, Trump and other foreign politicians have explained that it appears that Putin was not interested in peace, while the war has been going on for over three years.
The challenge of the negotiations
Trump often speaks of his “very good relationship” to Putin. Nevertheless, it turns out to be difficult to achieve a change of course in Ukraine through mere calls, threats of new sanctions or the name of Putin as "absolutely crazy".
