According to Ukrinform, Donald Trump posted this message on his social network Truth Social.
“President Putin of Russia doesn’t want to have a cease fire agreement with Ukraine, but rather wants to meet on Thursday, in Turkey, to negotiate a possible end to the bloodbath. Ukraine should agree to this, immediately,” Trump stated.
In his view, this would at least allow Ukraine “to determine whether or not a deal is possible”.
“If it is not, European leaders, and the U.S., will know where everything stands, and can proceed accordingly!” the U.S. President emphasized.
Trump added that he is unsure whether Russia is genuinely ready to negotiate peace:
“I’m starting to doubt that Ukraine will make a deal with Putin, who’s too busy celebrating the Victory of World War ll, which could not have been won (not even close!) without the United States of America. Have the meeting, now!!!” he urged.
