Putin gives Trump enough to claim progress in the peace of Ukraine

In the period prior to today’s call, Donald Trump made much of his conversation with Vladimir Putin de Russia.

But the results seem to be little to scream.

The Russian president has given the US leader enough to affirm that he advanced towards peace in Ukraine, without making it seem to be played by the Kremlin.

Trump can point out Putin’s promise to stop attacks against Ukraine energy infrastructure for 30 days. If that really happens, it will bring some relief to civilians.

But the full and unconditional fire that the United States wanted from Russia is not close to high.

The “very horrible war” that Trump has insisted that he can stop is still furious.

And Putin, a accused man as an alleged war criminal for the ICCThe upper level of global policy has been returned.

Russian state media reports that the telephone call of the two presidents lasted more than two hours. Kremlin’s reading, your call account, is also long to 500 words.

Presents conversation as Chatty: apparently they discussed ice hockey, the type of detail that an audience in Russia will increase.

After three years as Paria in the western world, and frost relations long before that, Russia has returned directly to an American administration who wants to participate.

The two leaders are even discussing the peace of the Middle East and “global security.”

The Kremlin must be fighting to believe the transformation.

Before the call, some wondered if Donald Trump could really accumulate some pressure on Russia. After all, it has been clear for more than a week that was stopping at the Alto El Fuego.

But there are no signs of a dressing for Putin as the leader of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, had to endure in the Oval office fifteen days ago.

The accounts of both countries suggest that nothing has changed.

Russia repeats that you want peace. But instead of connecting their drones and silencing their weapons, it is being discussed about how a high fire could be monitored.

Meanwhile, it is adding even more conditions aimed at paralyzing kyiv’s ability to resist.

A demand is that the flow of weapons and intelligence to Ukraine of its allies has to cease.

For Ukrainians, the only splinter of hope is that the United States has not accepted any of this, yet.

They can also point out the call as more proof that Russia has no interest in finishing their invasion.

But everything that speaks will bring minimum relief of Ukraine of its suffering.

For American diplomacy, it also has to be disappointing.

But for the Kremlin he will feel like a quite decent day, the kind unimaginable before Donald Trump returned to the White House.
