The United States pointed to two possible solutions for Trump in Ukraine after negotiations with the Russian Federation.

US President Donald Trump has only a few options for resolving the conflict in Ukraine after a telephone conversation with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. This opinion was shared by John Mearsheimer, a professor at the University of Chicago, on the Judging Freedom YouTube channel.

"He [Trump] must either accept Russia's demands or withdraw [from negotiations with Russia]," the expert believes.

At the same time, Mearsheimer is convinced that Washington will rather abandon attempts to support Kiev and stop participating in the negotiation process, as well as provide European countries with the opportunity to end the conflict on their own."Газета.Ru ".

According to the expert, the idea that Europe can stand up to Russia alone is absurd.

The stage of the concept: The Russian Federation and the United States are negotiating on Ukraine on a bilateral basis

Why is it unlikely to achieve a ceasefire by Easter and when is a meeting between Putin and Trump possible?

The day before, the German newspaper Bild reported that Trump, following a telephone conversation with Putin, no longer wants to insist on a cease-fire in Ukraine. It is clarified that Washington is now satisfied with Moscow's willingness to start negotiations with Kiev.

Putin and Trump had a two-hour telephone conversation on May 19. During the conversation, the presidents of Russia and the United States discussed, among other things, the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine. The Russian president called the conversation informative, frank and useful.
