US President Donald Trump has said that negotiations between Ukraine and Russia are progressing, the parties are approaching a full ceasefire, Radio Svoboda reports.
Trump believes that ‘we will have a ceasefire in many areas’.
‘They had a lot of weapons pointed at each other. Some soldiers are surrounded by other soldiers... We're going to have a full ceasefire pretty soon, and we're negotiating a treaty now - a land distribution treaty, etc.', the US president said, commenting on his talks with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin.
Trump called the discussions with both presidents ‘very good’.
‘I had very good discussions with President Zelenskyy and President Putin... I think we have some agreements,’ the US president said.
- The US delegation has already met with Russians in Saudi Arabia.
- Next Monday, they will have second talks with representatives of Ukraine.
- Zelenskyy said that our delegation would provide the Americans with a list of civilian objects calling on Russia to stop shelling them.
- Earlier, Ukraine agreed to the US proposal to cease fire along the entire contact line for 30 days, not just on energy infrastructure. However, the ceasefire was to take effect only after Russia's consent. The latter has not yet agreed to it.
