Ukrainian President Voludmir Zellinski, European leaders and US President Donald Trump expressed their hope that the White House talks will perform triple talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the Russian -Ukrainian war.
During his reception of European leaders and Ukrainian President, the US President said at the White House that he will make a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin after the White House meetings with a number of European leaders, and Trump added in his interview with reporters: “I just spoke to Putin indirectly.”
He stressed that “the comprehensive deal to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine is better than the ceasefire,” stressing that the United States of America will support European security guarantees for Ukraine to help end the war with Russia.
Trump pointed out that the United States can try to negotiate to end the Ukrainian crisis without the need for a truce that stops fighting.
For his part, Ukrainian President Folodimir Zellinski said he was ready for a triple dialogue that includes Russian President Vladimir Putin. He added, “After stopping the war, we will need to develop the capabilities of the Ukrainian army.”
The White House received the European leaders participating in the meeting, to discuss negotiations to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine, and the Ukrainian President Foludmir Zellinski, European Commission President Ursula von der Line, British Prime Minister Kiir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz, Italian Prime Minister Georga Meloni, President Georga Melon Finn Alexander Stop, and Secretary General of NATO Mark Roat.
Russia’s comment on the meeting
Regarding Russia’s response to the meetings, the Russian Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations, Dmitry Poliannski, told United Nations correspondents that “what everyone hopes” is that President Trump’s meetings with the President of Ukraine and European leaders “in the same way” like the American leader’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska last Friday will run last Friday.
He said that Trump acknowledged that his meeting with Putin opened “an opportunity to achieve long -term peace“.
“We strongly welcome such a scenario“. He added: “We hope that the Ukrainian leadership, instead of thinking about saving itself, will think of its people who do not want to fight, and is ready for peace – a just, fair and permanent peace. This is what Russia is seeking to achieve in Ukraine for many years.”.
