Newspaper The Telegraph She directly stated that «now the world belongs to Putin and Trump.» Journalists of the publication believe that the beginning of official negotiations between Washington and Moscow is a significant diplomatic victory for the Russian president. In their opinion, Putin always sought to approve Russia as one of the leading world powers along with the USA and China. Therefore, his main priority was a discussion of the Ukrainian conflict directly with the White House, bypassing Kyiv.

For Ukraine, according to journalists, the incident became a “gloomy deal”, since the country will not receive either NATO membership, or security guarantees, or American troops to participate in the peacekeeping mission.

British Daily Mail He writes that the conversation of the two presidents «shocked the whole world.»

Agency Reuters It wrote that the conversation of the two presidents was the «first great step of Trump» on the way to the diplomatic settlement of the Ukrainian conflict. «

Assosiated Press (Ar) It indicates that it is not yet clear how in negotiations between Russia and the USA in Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky will be involved and whether he will even play any role in them.

This is also indicated by the channel Al jazeera: “Trump’s conversation with Putin, perhaps, also signals that Washington and Moscow can develop an agreement on the termination of hostilities in Ukraine bypassing Kyiv, which would have been contrary to the position that the Biden administration previously occupied.”

French edition Journal du Dimanche In its publication, the “pressure” from Trump to Ukraine on the issue of negotiations emphasized.

Trump also puts pressure on Kyiv. If he refuses a peaceful plan, Washington’s help may stop immediately, which can lead to the surrender of Ukraine— the article says.
