Unproductive Negotiations: Trump Failed to Obtain Any Concessions from Putin.

Recently, President Donald Trump reached out to Vladimir Putin with a call 'Vladimir, STOP!' on the social media platform Truth Social. This was the result of unfavorable negotiations that had been ongoing recently, reports The Atlantic.

U.S. President Donald Trump addressed Russian President Vladimir Putin on the social media platform Truth Social, urging him to stop. This was the outcome of unsuccessful negotiations that had been ongoing, reports The Atlantic.

Over the past year, the perception emerged that Putin has a desire to reach a deal with Ukraine. It is known that the Russian economy is suffering from international sanctions, and the military has incurred significant losses in battles. Trump has repeatedly stated that negotiations will be easy, and he will quickly resolve the conflict.

But after three months of negotiations, Trump was unable to obtain any concessions from Putin and is now ready to walk away from the issue. Even considering the expectation that Russia would capitulate due to its weakness, Putin is getting everything he wants without giving anything in return.

The current proposal is favorable to Putin, while Trump's team is trying to concoct 'Russian concessions.' For instance, Vice President Pence referred to the concession that the Russians might 'relinquish' control over some Ukrainian territories. When it comes to Ukrainian security from future Russian invasions, Putin is not making any compromises.

Russia has clearly expressed a desire for a demilitarized Ukraine and to halt the supply of weapons and economic assistance from the West. Putin insists that he will not allow the presence of European peacekeepers, which he considers equivalent to the presence of NATO forces at his borders.

On the day Trump criticized Zelensky for refusing to accept the American proposal (which was also rejected by Putin), Putin carried out a devastating missile strike on a civilian target in Kyiv. Trump's response 'Vladimir, STOP!' on Truth Social was a call for Putin to cease humiliating Ukrainian civilians in front of the world, rather than a sincere plea for their salvation.

It seems Trump wishes to close the Ukrainian issue to normalize relations with Russia, but Putin is not interested in cooperation and continues to respond with missile strikes on civilian targets.
