Diplomacy: Kremlin: Trump’s call is signal for dialogue instead of war

The Kremlin evaluates the call of US President Donald Trump from Russia’s head of state Vladimir Putin in the middle of the week as the turning point in the Ukraine War. “This is a signal that we are now trying to clarify things in dialogue and talk about peace – and not about war,” said Pfel Sarubin in an interview with the Kremlin correspondent of state television. Before that, the western heads of state had rejected talks with Russia and pursued the line to fight the war to the bitter end, he complained. Russia attacked its neighboring country in February 2022.

According to Peskow, however, the avoided meeting of the two presidents still requires a lot of preparation. The bilateral relationships between the two countries were destroyed by the previous government too heavy. He did not call a precise time for a meeting. Most recently, Saudi Arabia was mentioned as Trump’s meeting point for a summit about the end of the Russian war of aggression.

Peskow described an agreement as possible, once again accusing the West, with the Minsk Agreement, which in 2014/2015 Invested the fighting in Ukraine, in the Investigation. Moscow will take this experience into account in future contracts. However, Russia learned from this to enforce its interests.

Putin had ordered his war of attack against Ukraine three years ago. As a reason, he stated that the planned NATO accession of the neighboring country threatens Russia’s security and Kiev supposedly supposed the Russian-speaking minority in the east of the country. Since then, the war has requested estimates after hundreds of thousands of victims, including many civilians – especially in the Russian -speaking part of Ukraine.
