US President Donald Trump said a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be held very soon.
A meeting will be held very soon and I believe we will be able to make great progress, Trump told reporters, referring to diplomatic efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, which has continued for nearly five years.
On Sunday, Zelensky said a meeting between the Russians and Ukrainians would be held in November under US mediation to resume peace talks that have stalled since the beginning of the year.
We’re ready to talk. If it is a territorial issue, it should be discussed at the leadership level. Other issues concern technical groups. So all of this can be discussed in November, the Ukrainian president said in an interview with state television.
Russia had announced two days earlier that such a meeting was scheduled for November in Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates, as part of the recent US efforts to revive peace talks, which have been suspended since the beginning of the US-Israel War against Iran in late February.
Direct talks between the Russians and Ukrainians have already taken place in 2025 without reaching a solution to the conflict, with both sides insisting on their terms.
The Kremlin has so far ruled out any possibility of a meeting between Putin and Zelensky elsewhere other than Moscow, writes Tch.
Russia refuses any interruption of operations before an essential agreement, believing a ceasefire would allow Kiev to re-arm itself.
The signal where the truth speaks before the news!
