Trump announces radical turn in Russia policy-experts warn!
Kiew, Ukraine - President Donald Trump has recently announced a dramatic turn in Russian foreign policy. After a conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump said that the United States would no longer insist on a 30-day ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. Instead, he said that he was not interested in new sanctions against Russia and that the two countries themselves should find a solution to their conflict. This reports OE24
The U -turned turnaround announced by Trump met with concern in Germany. German government circles reported a tense situation, and there are fears in front of the "worst case" of a US exit from the conflict. Security expert Claudia Major found that the Europeans cannot rely on Trump's positions, while foreign policy analyst Peter Rough emphasizes the importance of the cooperation between the USA and Ukraine. Experts fear that the United States could lift sanctions against Russia while Putin continues to carry out war operations.
The way to the ceasefire
Surprisingly, Trump recently called for a 30-day unconditional ceasefire. In his statements on the Truth Social platform, he even threatened to sanctions further if the ceasefire was not observed. During a phone call, he demonstrated this attitude with the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj, who informed Trump about the willingness of Ukraine for arms. However, Selenskyj made it clear that Moscow had to prove the seriousness of his intention to end the war. These developments were documented by Tagesschau
Selenskyj and Trump also discussed the close cooperation to terminate the Russian attack, which is as important for the Ukrainian leadership as the support from Germany. The new Federal Foreign Minister Johann WadePhul planned to visit Ukraine and take part in an informal meeting of the EU Foreign Minister in LWIW to find out how Germany can support Ukraine in its current situation.
failed negotiations
The military and diplomatic efforts have been shaped by numerous difficulties since the beginning of the conflict in February 2022. President Trump even blamed Selenskyj for the ongoing war and thus takes over a critical attitude towards Kiev. This view is criticized by Selenskyj as a takeover of Russian propaganda. While Russia continues to carry out military attacks, Putin claims to be open to negotiations. However, the Russia-Ukraine conversations mainly focus on humanitarian questions and fails on conditions that can hardly be accepted by Kiev, as reported by
