Russia Putin is open to the Ukrainian peace deal: United States envoy Russia-Ukraine, news war

US envoy Steve Whitchov said that Russian President Vladimir Putin is open to a “permanent peace” deal with Ukraine.

President Donald Trump’s envoy submitted this claim in a television interview late on Monday, after “convincing” talks with Putin in Saint Petersburg last week. However, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has warned that agreeing on the conditions on the deal is “not easy”, while Ukraine and its European allies have called on Washington not to deceive them through Moscow’s delay tactics regarding the ceasefire.

“I think we might be about to be a very important thing for the world in general,” he told Fox News in an interview with his meeting with the Russian leader on Friday.

He also pointed to the possibility of “reshaping” the relationship between Russian states and states through “commercial opportunities” that would bring stability to the region.

Friday’s meeting was the third between Russia and the United States since Trump returned to the White House in January, claiming that he could resolve the conflict within 24 hours.

Despite the diplomatic wave, there was no significant progress in a ceasefire, despite Ukraine’s approval of the US proposals.

However, Russia has not made any major concessions, while continuing to bomb its neighbor. On Sunday, one of the bloody attacks of the war on the Ukrainian city of Sumi – a step called Trump “error”, launched a situation.

The two sides accused each other of violating the United States’ average agreement to stop the attacks on each other’s energy facilities.

Blame game

Despite the optimistic report of Witkoff, Lavrov said in an interview with the Kommersant newspaper, which was published on Monday that it was “not easy” to agree on the “main components” of the peace agreement.

However, he admitted that the Trump administration was trying to understand the “root cause” of the conflict, which he said had caused “Washington and Brussels’s actions” in “bringing the current regime to power in Ukraine.”

Trump, who disturbed Ukraine by taking many points of Russia’s agenda in relation to the war, supported this point on Monday as the reporters told Ukrainian President Voludmir Zelinsky and former US President Joe Biden were responsible for starting the conflict, along with Putin, whose forces invaded Ukrain in February 2022.

Trump said that there are “millions of people who died because of three people.”

He said: “Let’s say Putin number one, but let’s say Biden, who had no idea of ​​what he was doing against hell, the second number, and Zelinski.”

“When you start a war, I got to know that you can win the war,” Trump said. “Do not start a war against someone 20 times your size, then hope that people will give you some missiles.”

“Mocturies of goodwill”

The relations between Trump and Zelinski have been tense since the American president surprised the world by opening talks with Russia in February – a move that the critics have given the Kremlin a advantage over the conditions.

Negotiations on a deal began to allow the United States’ priority to reach profitable minerals in Ukraine, a rock start after Trump and Zelensky had a burning argument in the oval office six weeks ago.

Ukraine was concerned about its neglect of talks between the United States and Russia.

“Please, before any kind of decisions, any kind of negotiations, comes to see people, civilians, warriors, hospitals, churches, destroyed or dead children,” Zelinski said in an interview with the 60 -minute CBS program on Sunday.

Meanwhile, European Kiev allies urged Trump and his team not to take Russia’s delay tactics in the ceasefire talks.

Polish Foreign Minister Radoslao Sikorsky said on Monday that he hoped, in the wake of the attack on Sumi, who sees Trump and his administration that Putin “is mocking goodwill.”
