Putin's position on Donbas

Sources from the publication claim that during the phone call, Donald Trump shared the essence of the Kremlin's position with the Ukrainian side. He emphasized that Moscow has not abandoned its main demand - to force Kyiv to concede the Donbas territory.

Although the decision on what to do with the territory belongs to Ukraine, Putin still wants Kyiv to renounce control over the entire Donbas territory, Bloomberg's source noted.

Trump stressed that future negotiations will be difficult, as the Kremlin's demands have not changed since the beginning of the full-scale war. He added that it is Kyiv that has the final word in defining its territorial integrity.

We remind you that the leaders of leading European states confirmed their firm support for Ukraine after a phone conversation with Trump and Zelensky.

Earlier, we also informed that Zelensky reacted to this statement, thanking allies for their help. He emphasized that the support of partners is extremely important in Ukraine's fight for freedom and security.
