Arrangements for Trump-Putin Talks Delayed Shortly Following Hungarian Capital Negotiations Announced
Currently exist "no preparations" for US President President Trump to meet Russian President Putin "anytime soon", a administration representative has announced.
Recently the US president stated he and the Kremlin leader would hold talks in Budapest soon to examine the ongoing hostilities.
A planning session between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov was due to be held this week - but the administration stated the two had had a "productive" discussion and that a meeting was not "required".
The administration withheld any more details on the reason the negotiations had been postponed.
Earlier Events
The US president had raised the possibility of a Hungarian meeting during a call with the Russian leader, a day before meeting Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office.
Some reports indicated his talks with Zelensky had been a "contentious discussion", with those familiar claiming Trump had urged him to relinquish extensive regions of Ukraine's east as part of a deal with Russia.
Yet, on Monday Trump embraced a ceasefire proposal backed by Ukraine and EU officials to pause the conflict on the current front line.
"Let it be cut the way it is," he stated.
Russia has consistently objected against halting the current line of contact.
Moscow was only interested in "long-term, sustainable peace", Russia's foreign minister stated on Tuesday, suggesting that pausing conflict would only amount to a short-term truce.
Negotiating Stances
The "underlying reasons" of the war required resolution, Lavrov emphasized, using Moscow's terminology for a set of extensive requirements that involve the acknowledgment of full Russian sovereignty over the Donbas as well as the demilitarisation of Ukraine – a non-starter for Kyiv and its European partners.
Zelensky said discussions about the front line were the "beginning of diplomacy" but that Moscow was "taking all measures" to prevent dialogue.
He further commented the sole subject that could make Moscow "take notice" was that of the provision of extended-range arms to Ukraine.
Military Considerations
The Russian president's unplanned conversation with Trump last Thursday preceded reports that the US was planning to provide extended-range cruise missiles to Ukrainian forces that could potentially strike deep into Russia.
The Ukrainian leader said it was the Tomahawks issue that had forced Russia to participate in talks. The conversation concerning the missiles had proven to be a "valuable contribution" in international relations", he commented.
