Washington: The meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin (Trump and Putin’s ) regarding the Russia-Ukraine war has been postponed. This information was revealed by US officials themselves. The meeting was scheduled to take place in Budapest. The real reason for the postponement is not yet known.
The announcement was made last week.
This meeting between Putin and Trump was announced last week. However, the date for the meeting had not been finalized. This decision was made after talks between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
What is the latest situation regarding the Russia-Ukraine war?
Moscow has categorically refused to accept the demand for a ceasefire in Ukraine. Meanwhile, the meeting between Putin and Trump regarding Ukraine has also been postponed. In such a situation, efforts to stop this war appear to be on hold.
The last meeting between Trump and Putin took place in Alaska last August. After this, it seemed that the two leaders would reach some agreement on the Ukraine-Russia war and establish peace. However, the postponement of this meeting may prolong the matter.
When will Trump and Putin meet now?
Media reports, quoting White House officials, say that there are no plans for a future meeting between President Trump and President Putin. Previously, the two foreign ministers, Marco Rubio and Sergei Lavrov, had a phone conversation.
Russia has set these conditions for peace in Ukraine
Russia has set the condition for lasting peace: keeping Ukraine non-nuclear and not joining the US-led NATO alliance. It should be noted that the war between Russia and Ukraine has been ongoing since 2022. Putin first ordered the attack on Ukraine in February 2022. The conflict between the two countries has continued ever since. Although Putin has repeatedly stated his readiness for peace talks, the two countries remain unable to reach a consensus on the issues.
