Trump again proposed that Moscow and Kyiv cease hostilities along the current front line
Sputnik, Washington, October 20 - According to White House correspondents, US President Trump again proposed to Russia and Ukraine, hoping both sides would stop military operations along the current front line and "then negotiate an agreement."
The report said: "Trump stated that he did not discuss the Donbas issue with Russian President Putin, and reiterated his hope that both sides 'stop along the current front line.' [Russia has controlled 78% of the territory. Then they can reach some agreement]."
Reuters cited two sources stating that Trump discussed security guarantees for Ukraine and Russia during his meeting with Zelenskyy. "Trump ... discussed security guarantees for Kyiv as well as for Moscow."
Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov previously pointed out that Russia is willing to discuss political solutions with Ukraine and work in any form, but the proposal made by Russia in the Istanbul negotiations in 2022 regarding the establishment of three working groups to specifically study humanitarian, military, and political issues has not received a response from Kyiv to date.
