Political relations between Russia and the West are escalating again. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to sources cited by The New York Times, Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin believes that dominance has been achieved in the territory of Ukraine and that the situation on the battlefield may change drastically in the coming months. Putin speculates that there is a possibility of the collapse of Ukraine's defense in the near future.
According to sources in the Kremlin, the Russian army is intensifying its attacks, and under the current circumstances, it is impossible to talk about halting military actions, even if there are no large-scale attacks from Ukraine. This view aligns with the political climate in Moscow, where the Kremlin is only thinking about victory.
On the other hand, former US President Donald Trump has openly expressed dissatisfaction with Putin's uncompromising stance in recent days. He emphasized that the Russian leader makes many promises, but in practice, those promises are not fulfilled.
Trump has revealed that he has spoken with Putin six times over the phone since February. Nevertheless, Washington has not yet imposed new sanctions against Russia, has not provided significant military aid to Ukraine, and has not taken decisive steps to reject Moscow's demands.
One of the sources for The New York Times stated that Putin is well aware that Trump's patience may run out and new sanctions could be imposed, and he is acting on that basis. The Kremlin is currently cautious in its communications with the West, emphasizing that the main goal is to completely eliminate Ukraine's defense and force Kyiv to negotiate.
Trump, in his recent statements, has indicated that there is a difference between Putin's words and actions, and he is considering the issue of imposing new sanctions against Russia. In the Kremlin, Putin is prioritizing long-term strategic goals.
Political analysts believe that despite sanctions and new pressures, he is ready to continue relations with the West in pursuit of his goals. At the same time, he hopes for agreements to ease sanctions in future negotiations.
The combat situation in Ukraine is changing day by day. Confidence in the Russian army, doubts in the West, and the relationship between Washington and Moscow have ushered in a new phase in international politics.
These events represent a new chapter in the global political chess game, and time will reveal what changes lie ahead. It should be noted that every decision and word plays a crucial role in determining Ukraine's fate.
