US President Donald Trump has said that Ukraine should make a deal to end the war with Russia because Russia is a very big power, and Ukraine is not. In a post-summit interview, Mr. Trump urged Kyiv to compromise and make a deal.
He said that his role was not to negotiate on Ukraine’s behalf but to get the parties to the table. In a major shift of position, President Trump said that the best way to end the horrific war between Russia and Ukraine is to go directly to a Peace Agreement, which would end the war, because ceasefires often do not hold up.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on a social media post said, Stopping the killing is a key element of stopping the war. Zelenskiy is scheduled to meet Trump in Washington tomorrow.
Trump’s comments after the summit indicate a dramatic shift in his position on how to end the war, having said earlier that he wanted a ceasefire rapidly. Ukraine’s main demand has been a quick ceasefire before talks about a longer-term settlement.
