Trump's Bombshell: Ukraine Talks Doomed Without Him and Putin

Ukraine Peace Talks Uncertain as Trump Calls for Meeting with Putin Tensions remain high in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as peace negotiations scheduled for this week in Turkey face uncertainty. Former President Donald Trump's recent statement that "nothing's going to happen until Putin and I get together" has cast doubt on the talks' potential for success. The Ukrainian government has already expressed its disappointment with the Russian delegation, deeming it "decorative" and indicating that President Zelenskyy will not participate. Trump's suggestion that he might travel to Turkey if progress is made further underscores the unusual nature of the situation. The absence of key players like Putin and Zelenskyy raises concerns about the talks' effectiveness. The situation is further complicated by the lack of any top Russian diplomats attending the talks, which could hinder any meaningful discussions or breakthroughs. This leaves the future of the negotiations uncertain, and the conflict in Ukraine continues.
