Trump said that Russia has “all cards”, but this ceasefire proposal is just called Putin.

With Ukraine registered on the United States’ proposals for a 30 -day ceasefire, the pressure on the Kremlin is now to decide whether to accept President Donald Trump’s plan to bring the Ukraine war, albeit temporary.

Russian officials are alluded to contacts with the representatives of the United States “in the next few days”, but they have not said whether the conditions for the ceasefire, as stipulated in the United States -Ukrainian talks in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, will be acceptable.

For Moscow, this is the moment of truth that may require embarrassing concessions if it is serious in peace.

The Kremlin has long claimed that it was open to negotiations to end the conflict, while insisting that it must achieve its ambitious goals of the war, such as securing control of all areas attached to Ukraine.

President Voludmir Zelinski speaks with US President Donald Trump and US Vice President JD Vance at the White House Oval Office in Washington, DC, on February 28.

Only last week, Russian President Vladimir Putin, the powerful Kremlin man who launched this brutal war three years ago, pledged to a group of widows and tears from the Russian soldiers who were killed “did not” surrender. “

Russian militants who support the war, sometimes encouraged by the Kremlin, may see the ceasefire as betrayal.

But climbing of some kind may be inevitable.

Even if the Russian negotiators can impose their own circumstances on the ceasefire – the Ukrainian withdrawal from Kursk, for example, the small pocket of Russia that Ukraine seized, as the fighting is now ready – is difficult to imagine its greatest regional demands, however, the goal of NATO from NATO will lead.

This may also become a crucial crossroads in Putin’s warm relationship with Trump, who, in exchange for modern concessions and praise, may now be expected to play the Kremlin leader the ball.

In fact, “The ball is now in their stadium”, it is exactly what US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said about the Russians after concluding his talks with Ukrainian officials in Jeddah.

Just a few days ago, Trump claimed that the Russians had “all cards”. Now, intentionally or not, he may have called Putin a trick.
