Trump-Putin Call seen Russian victory

Judging some today’s headlines in Russia, Moscow believes that the latest phone conversation between President Putin and Trump is good for Kremlin.

“Putin and Trump agree to cooperate with Ukraine’s resolution,” graduated from Izvestia.

“Record-long Putin-Trump call,” Komsomolskaya Pravda declares. The paper website increases: “As things stand in Russia scored a winning diplomatic here.”

Why do some Russia claim “victory” after this two hour phone call?

Maybe because, at the end of it, Vladimir Putin has not been forced to make any major concessions in Ukraine or the United States. On the contrary, he has – so – rejects President Trump’s idea of ​​a quick unconditional 30-day ceasefire.

Instead of maintaining Moscow in the threat of either the penalties and fines, to sign Russia to its plan, the US administration of the Kremlin leader.

“We have a great call,” Donald Trump told Fox News.

“I will praise President Putin for all that he is doing now on that call to move his country close to the last agreement in peace,” Trump Steve Witkoff said.

Not only is Moscow disagree with an unconditional ceasefire, President Putin sets his own circumstances for peace.

They include an end to the Western military assistance and intelligence engaged in Ukrainians, as well as stop moving Ukraine. Such conditions are generally viewed as a means of claiming to attack chapter in Ukraine.

It’s hard to see Kyiv’s approval of any of that.

But can Trump administration be attracted, in Moscow, such situations are accepted? And if so, did Washington Ukraine forced them to accept them?

Many depends on whether the Kremlin convinced President Trump that he could have more from developing good moscow relations rather than defending the corner of Ukraine.

It seems to keep the point at home, in their conversations with Americans, Russian officials have greatly liked economic carrots and discussing when Russian-US relationships can work on joint projects.

Vladimir Putin has recently increased the hope of US-Russia cooperation in making aluminum and rare mineral minerals.

The message appears to be passed.

“We wanted to have a lot of Russia’s trades,” said Donald Trump on Tuesday at his interview with Fox News.

“They have some important things for us, including rare land. They have a large piece of real estate, the largest in the world. There are things they can use.”

Moscow can expect – it is possible to calculate – which Donald Trump is prioritize a particle of “Russian real estate” to acquire an acceptable agreement for Ukraine.

It’s a point that is now echoed by pro-kremlin izvestia newspaper:

“The logic of Moscow is to create American economic relations that are useful that separating it will be very expensive for the United States.”

After Ukraine is an unconditional ceasefire a week ago, the US Administration announced that “the ball is in (Runsia’s) court”.

Now that Vladimir Putin rejected the agreement and put his own conditions, the Kremlin leader hit it back to the “Court” in America.

But Russia and America will continue their discussions – in Ukraine and the US-Russian relationship.

And these negotiations are likely to influence Donald Trump’s next step.
