When it comes to the United States, an agreement on a cease -the fire between Ukraine and Russia must be available until April 20. US President Donald Trump said that the efforts to stop a new escalation of the Ukraine War were “somewhat under control”.
Trump explained to a journalist from the Outkick website aboard the presidential machine Air Force One, “rational discussions” and good relationships with the Russian and Ukrainian president Wladimir Putin and Wolodymyr Senskyj are central to negotiating an end of the war.
American negotiators want to have individual conversations with delegations from Kiev and Moscow about a cease -the fire in Ukraine in Saudi Arabia. According to Ukrainian information, their negotiators, led by Minister of Defense Rustem Umerow, will meet the American delegation on Sunday. On Monday a meeting of American negotiators with Russian government officials will take place in Saudi Aarabia. In the first instance there were no exact time information about the conversations.
Kremlin increases accusations against Ukraine
Meanwhile, Muskau accused Kyiv of shooting Russian energy systems. Although the Russian side has been holding a corresponding agreement for days and Putin immediately gave the order to hire such attacks, Ukraine did not do this, Kremllager Dmitri Peskow told the Russian state of television.
Putin and Trump had identified a 30-day distance of attacks on energy systems during a phone call. The Ukrainian president Senskyj was also agreed in a conversation with Trump. However, the details still have to be clarified during the negotiations in Saudi Arabia.
Peskow, on the other hand, spoke about the breaking of the similarities. This shows how little the insurance companies in Ukraine can trust. According to the Kremlin spokesperson, this can lead to a necessary new negotiation round between Putin and Trump. Experts see the allegations an attempt to increase the pressure on Kiev to improve their own negotiating position.
Also sharp criticism of Europe
In addition to the Ukrainians, Peskow also criticized Europeans. The statements of French President Emmanuel Macron about a nuclear parade are dangerous, warned the spokesperson who accused Europeans of aggressive militarism. Instead of investing in the health care system or to develop the infrastructure instead of 800 billion euros, Europe wanted to spend the money on armament and the army. Russia itself finances the areas of defense and safety information in the current year by more than 40 percent of the budget costs – 15 percent are intended for the social sector.
US Special Envoy: Putin does not want to take all of Europe
In the opinion of the American specialist Steve Witkoff, Putin does not want to include himself in “all of Europe”. When he was asked about Putin’s motives, he just doesn’t see Putin focusing on the entire Europe, Witkoff said in a TV interview. “This is a completely different situation than in the Second World War – there was no NATO at the time.”
With regard to the Russian attack war in Ukraine, Witkoff said: “You can’t end things without communicating with both parties, understand what everyone needs and then try to bring them together.”
