After talking to Putin, Trump is satisfied, while it is particularly criticism from Ukraine and Europe. How do Russian media and personalities react?
The expectations of the telephone conversation between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin on Tuesday afternoon German time were high – but in the end the phone call only brought a narrow agreement: Russia will not be shot by Ukrainian energy systems for 30 days, even if Ukraine does without. The Kremlin said that Putin immediately instructed his military. This should also apply immediately according to Trump’s information.
But just a few hours later, Russia passed the greater Kiev area and several other regions of Ukraine with numerous drone attacks. According to the Ukrainian authorities, a hospital in Sumy was taken.
Putin’s state media full of praise and hope
And how do Russian media and political celebrities react to the phone call? It becomes clear how the state media again represent the Ukrainian President Selenskyj as a war driver, while Putin has the supposedly greatest interest in peace in Ukraine. The historical Bundestag vote on the financial package was also an issue in this context. An overview:
State television station 1TV:
“While the western media actively discussed which side the ball was on the negotiations to settle the Ukraine conflict, the Russian president made an unexpected pass to the White House-but this time it was not a ball. Placid (1980), in which the US team won the victory.
Although it is still unclear which result the future games will have or whether they will take place at all, this idea from Moscow only showed signs of relaxation in bilateral relationships. In this context, the prisoner exchange announced by Russia increased the feeling of accommodation as the gesture of goodwill. (…)
While the Russian president gave the command to hire attacks on the Ukrainian energy infrastructure, Selenskyj was busy finding excuses. So far there have been no countermeasures – neither from the Ukrainian side nor from the west as a whole. On the contrary: everything is continued here to sabotage the peace efforts of the Kremlin and the White House. The warlike rhetoric in Europe is underpinned by concrete measures. Just a few hours before the telephone conversation between Putin and Trump, the German Parliament approved the establishment of an infrastructure of 500 billion euros, a significant part of which is to be used for the expansion of armor production. “
Daily newspaper “Wedomosti”:
“After the phone call between Trump and Putin, the White House published an explanation in which it was said that the heads of state had discussed the perspectives for the development of relationships between the USA and Russia. It was emphasized that an improvement in these relationships could bring significant opportunities for both countries. will pave an increased global stability. “
Daily newspaper “Moskowski Komsomolez”:
“The reaction of Europe to the conversation between the presidents of Russia and the USA, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump is not important because Europe has already lost its independent position in the Ukraine conflict, said Chinese expert Cui Heng in an interview with Ria Novosti.
‘Whether Europe is upset about the conversation between Putin and Trump or not – that doesn’t matter. Neither Trump nor Putin are affected because Europe has already given up its independent position in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. And if there is no position of your own, there is no value, ‘said the agency’s interlocutor. “
Daily newspaper “Komsomolskaja Prawda”:
“(The negotiations, editor’s note) lasted 2 hours and 28 minutes to be precise. A record. That has not been on the phone with any other American president. The duration of the conversation confirmed again that Russia and the USA are separated by global problems that have accumulated for many years. And the presidents have to assert them and coordinate numerous topics.”
Ex-President Dmitri Medvedev (now deputy chair of the Russian Security Council):
“The telephone conversation between the President Putin and Trump confirmed a well -known idea – only Russia and America are sitting at the table. On the menu: As a light starters Brussels Kohl, British fish with chips and a Parisian cock. The main course – Kiev Kotelett!”
Konstantin Kossatschev, deputy chair of the Russian Federation Council:
“The most important impression – it was a dialogue, not two monologues. And not in the mode that we wanted to impose – either you accept our conditions, or you are responsible for all consequences. Russia did not fall for it, but America did not go the senseless way either (…) Overall, you can find out: Diplomacy is back!”
Kirill Dmitrijew, special representative of the Russian President:
“Under the leadership of President Putin and President Trump, the world has become much safer today.”
Maria Sacharova, spokeswoman for the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
“The EU has repeatedly emphasized that ‘the ball lies on the Moscow side’. As it turned out, it was a hockey puck. And it is in the game.”
