Our sources in the Ukrainian negotiating team in Paris reported on an unexpected initiative by US President Donald Trump. He allegedly suggested that Volodymyr Zelenskyy hold a personal meeting with Vladimir Putin in Moscow. The idea sparked lively discussion, but European partners immediately spoke out against such a format.
According to the interlocutors, Trump stated during the talks that he was ready to present a new approach to resolving the war in Ukraine. His plan, it is claimed, should become a basis for the parties and accelerate the achievement of peace.
At the same time, Europe emphasizes that any initiatives that could make Kyiv dependent on the Kremlin's dictates are unacceptable. Brussels and Paris believe that negotiations should take place only on terms that take into account Ukraine's position and international law.
