United States President Donald Trump states that Russia and Ukraine are “very close to an agreement” that would end the war and asks both sides gather “at very high levels.”
“A good day for conversations and meetings with Russia and Ukraine. They are very close to an agreement, and both sides should now meet at very high levels to” end the conflict, “Trump wrote on Truth Social after landing in Rome on Friday (25) before the Pope’s funeral.
“Most of the main points have been awakened. Stop the bloodshed, now. We will be where it is necessary to help facilitate the end of this cruel and meaningless war,” added the president.
Trump’s publication was made after one of his top envoy meet today with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow and before Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, attending the funeral on Saturday (26).
There were two divergent versions of a peace agreement at the center of recent negotiations, while Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff was preparing to meet Putin: one supported by Ukraine and his European allies, and another supported by the Trump administration.
A European authority familiar with the different drafts stated that the Ukrainian and European proposal provided for a ceasefire followed by discussions on territory, with Kiev receiving guarantees of defense of his allies in the lines of those found in NATO Article 5.
Witkoff’s version proposed the recognition of Crimea as Russian for the United States, “robust security guarantees” to Ukraine, the non -adherence of Kiev to NATO and the survey of sanctions against Russia, the authority told.
Trump’s appeal for high -level negotiations also occurs after Witkoff and Putin discuss the idea of ​​resuming direct negotiations between Kiev and Moscow.
