The newly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump, both due to external circumstances and due to certain traits of his character, brings Ukraine a certain chance. This is evidenced even by his first decrees, which he signed immediately after taking office..
" Chance why? He speaks of the greatness of America and promises to lead the United States along this path to a new golden era in its development. If on this path he sees that Putin is obstructing, then believe me, the situation for Putin will become absolutely critical,” says the diplomat.
Mr. Ogryzko recalls that Trump is already “clearly and clearly saying that continuing the war for Putin is the worst option.”. The circle of the American leader is similar, and “not only yesterday, but also before” they began to talk about a just world.
The elected US President promised peace to Ukrainians as well as to his voters to return America to greatness. And now he must fulfill his promise regarding Ukraine, because “his opponents, the same democrats, will trample him to the end”.
“I think that Trump really has a chance for us if we explain to him that in order to become a great American president and go down in history along with other major American presidents, he does not need peace at any cost, but a just peace,” he emphasized.
We are talking about a world with restored international law, that is, “punishing the aggressor”.
According to the expert, one should not expect a meeting between Trump and the Russian dictator in the near future, because meetings at this level are “not the beginning, but the end of the process.”. Now only a telephone conversation between Trump and Putin is possible.
“Therefore, it seems to me that there is no need to talk about any very fast steps yet. As of today, the Americans do not have a program for resolving the war in Ukraine.. Therefore, it is very important that we can convey to them our vision of a sustainable and just world through different channels. And only after this will it make sense for the Americans to conduct some kind of negotiations with the Russians,” the diplomat noted.
It is known that Trump has already instructed his aides to organize a telephone conversation with Putin in the first days after the inauguration. The purpose of the call is to discuss their personal meeting in the near future to try to find a path to ending the war in Ukraine.
