Disclosure of the Wall Street Journal of Trump’s private conversations with European leaders
In a private conversation, Trump has claimed to European leaders that Putin is not ready to end the war.
According to RCO News Agency, three informed people told the Wall Street Journal that in Monday, US President Donald Trump told European leaders that Russian President Vladimir Putin was not ready to end the Ukrainian war because he thinks he was victorious.
According to the media, these were what European leaders believed in Putin for a long time, but this was the first time they heard it in Trump.
These statements are inconsistent with what Trump had said earlier in public – that is, Putin really wants peace – is inconsistent. The White House refused to comment and referred to Trump’s post on social media on Monday about his conversation with Putin.
“The tone of the conversation was great,” he said. If it weren’t for, I would say right now. “
“Although Trump seems to have come to the conclusion that Putin is not ready for peace, it has not done what Europeans and Ukrainian President Walodimir Zelnsky want to intensify Russia,” the Wall Street Journal writes.
Trump had a meeting with European leaders a day before his two -hour conversation with Putin.
According to those informed about the conversation, he had pointed to the call that could impose sanctions on Putin if the ceasefire is rejected. But until Monday, he changed his position again. He was not ready to do so.
Instead, Trump said he wants to quickly move on low -level talks between Russia and Ukraine in the Vatican.
Calling in European leaders with Trump
A phone call was held on Monday with the participation of French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Mortex, Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni and Ursula von in the European Commission Chairman.
The call was partly the result of European diplomatic efforts that began about 7 days ago, with the aim of force Trump to put pressure on Putin. Although these efforts eventually failed to force Trump to impose more sanctions, the Europeans saw “positive results”.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the process helped to make it clear to everyone – including Trump – what Putin’s position is; “He is reluctant to stop the war at this stage.”
And for the Europeans, this emphasized that they are now mainly the task of protecting Ukraine. According to sources, the Europeans believe that the Trump administration will not stop export of US weapons until Europe or Ukraine pay for weapons.
“This is not my war,” Trump told reporters on Monday after a conversation with Putin. “We entered something that we shouldn’t get involved.”
Trump said in a Sunday contact with European leaders – including Macron, Merts, Meloni and Kerry Starmer, British Prime Minister Marco Rubio, and Kate Clag, to send a special envoy to the Vatican talks.
But according to one of the informed people, Trump did not comment on the role of the United States on Monday.
Some of the Europeans present in the call on Monday emphasized that the result of any dialogue in the Vatican should be an indispensable ceasefire. But Trump again disagreed and said he did not like the term “unconditional”.
He said he never used the word, though he used it himself when he sought a six -day ceasefire at the Truth Socal Social Network on May 9. Finally, the Europeans agreed not to insist on using this phrase.
European diplomatic attacks to force Trump to pressure Russia intensified when Conservative German Chancellor Mortex came to power earlier this month. Merts is more inclined to face Putin than Putin’s leftist Chancellor Olaf Schultz. More importantly, the Merts Coalition helped reform the German constitution to provide more freedom to borrow for military spending and support Ukraine.
