Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has proposed that Ukraine withdraw its troops from the Ukrainian-controlled territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions as a first step toward ending the war.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A number of influential American publications write about this, including Bloomberg, The Financial Times and The New York Times.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In response, the Kremlin is ready to agree to a ceasefire along the current front line in the remaining territories and provide a written guarantee of non-aggression against Ukraine or any European state.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At the same time, US President Donald Trump, who is actively promoting the idea of a peace agreement, stressed that the territorial issue should be decided by Kyiv itself.<\/p>\n

As is known, on August 15, in Anchorage, Alaska, negotiations were held between US President Donald Trump and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. In the run-up to the meeting, there were serious concerns<\/a> in the expert and political community that the result of the negotiations would be an “exchange of territories”, that is, in fact, the legalization of the occupied Ukrainian lands by the Russian Federation.<\/p>\n

Following the talks, Trump and Putin held a joint press conference. “Pryamoy” collected all the key statements by the leaders of the US and Russia<\/a> . After the talks, the US President said that the summit was constructive and gave grounds for optimism. He announced consultations with NATO and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but stressed that there are no final agreements yet<\/a> .<\/p>\n

In addition, Donald Trump said that both Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky want to see him present at a potential joint meeting on peace settlement in Ukraine. Trump also refused to impose new sanctions<\/a> against Russia and confirmed that during the talks he discussed territorial agreements and security guarantees for Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Putin stressed after the talks that the war in Ukraine could only be resolved after its “fundamental causes” had been eliminated and the security balance in Europe had been restored. He called the meeting “mutually important”<\/a> and invited the American leader to the next summit in Moscow.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, former US National Security Advisor John Bolton has harshly assessed the results of the meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska, stating that the Russian dictator achieved most of what he wanted<\/a> , while the American president received only the prospect of further conversations.<\/p>\n
