The settlement of the Ukrainian conflict is in the hands of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky. This was announced on August 15 by the American leader Donald Trump in an interview with Fox News following talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Anchorage.

"There are one or two other rather significant points on which there is still no complete agreement, although I think they can be resolved. Now everything depends on President Zelensky," the American leader said.

In addition, he added that European states also need to be a little more active on this issue.
