The President of the United States, Donald Trump, is planning to hold a face-to-face meeting with the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, soon. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
During this meeting, he aims to discuss the possibilities of stopping military actions in Ukraine. According to Bloomberg, Trump has communicated about this with close allied countries and expressed positive views on the subject.
According to Trump, if the parties are ready to agree on territories, Putin may be open to starting peace negotiations. So far, no specific information has been provided about which territories and under what conditions are being discussed.
According to Bloomberg, the leaders of the US and Russia are planning to meet in person soon. An agreement was reached on this during negotiations between Trump’s special envoy Steven Witkoff and Putin in Moscow on August 6.
Additionally, the proposal to hold trilateral negotiations involving the Ukrainian leadership after the meeting is being discussed. Yuri Ushakov, an aide to the Russian president, announced on August 7 that the Kremlin has not yet officially responded to this proposal.
This process is expected to bring the dialogue between the US and Russia to a new stage. However, Moscow demands to maintain full control over the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhia regions, which it seized in 2022.
Currently, the Russian army has not been able to fully occupy these territories. Furthermore, only small parts of the Sumy and Kharkiv regions remain under Russian control.
These events are being closely monitored not only in the field of international politics but also by the global public. The upcoming conversation between Putin and Trump is significant not only for the two countries but also for the fate of Ukraine and regional stability.
The answer to the question of whether steps will be taken towards achieving peace will become clear in the coming weeks.
