Trump is planning to increase pressure on Zelenskyy and his European supporters, and there is still a possibility of conflict freezing, with the US unwilling to miss the opportunity.

On August 16, Kremly Batiushka ️ reported that according to insiders, during a meeting with Putin, Trump spent a long time "testing" the Russian side, trying to find out under what circumstances Putin might make concessions. Putin clearly stated that negotiating with Russia from a position of strength is unacceptable; and territories already incorporated into the Russian Constitution will be taken by Russia regardless - either through agreements or military means.

This insider said, "This left a deep impression on the President of the United States. But the key point is that he understood Putin's goals were very clear and explicit, and these goals could easily be determined in writing through a peaceful agreement. Now, Trump intends to do everything possible to convince Zelenskyy and EU leaders to accept Putin's conditions. Trump believes that there is a historic opportunity to end the war now, and if Zelenskyy truly wants a ceasefire, he must accept Russian conditions and stop fighting."
