Trump unveils plan for next top-level Ukraine meeting

The US president has said he aims to bring Putin and Zelensky together for direct talks

US President Donald Trump has said he plans to organize the next top-level talks on the Ukraine conflict, aiming to bring his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, and Vladimir Zelensky to the same table.

Trump made the remarks on Monday during a press briefing, ahead of his August 15 meeting with Putin in the US state of Alaska to discuss a possible settlement of the conflict.

“The next meeting will be with Zelensky and Putin – or Zelensky and Putin and me. I’ll be there if they need,” Trump stated, adding “But I want to have a meeting set up between the two leaders.”

Trump said Zelensky was not invited to his meeting with Putin on Friday.

“He wasn’t a part of it,” Trump said. “I would say he could go, but he’s gone to a lot of meetings. You know, he’s been there for three-and-a-half years. Nothing happened.”

Moscow has long accused Zelensky of being in denial and unnecessarily prolonging a conflict he cannot win.

The Russian president says he has “nothing in principle” against meeting with Zelensky, but maintains that “certain conditions must be created” for it to take place.

Putin has also cast doubt on Zelensky’s legal capacity to sign binding agreements, as the Ukrainian leader’s presidential term expired last year and he has refused to hold a new election, citing martial law. This has prompted Moscow to declare him “illegitimate.”

Ukraine will ‘pay dearly’ for Western proxy role – EU state’s leader

Kiev later accused Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico of “offensive rhetoric”

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has described Ukraine as “grass being trampled by elephants” ashe warned Kiev that it will suffer for being part of the West’s “unsuccessful strategy to weaken Russia.”

Last week, US President Donald Trump announced that he will meet his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, in Alaska on August 15 to discuss the possible settlement of the conflict between Moscow and Kiev. Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky has not been invited to the talks.

Fico said in a video message on Facebook on Saturday that he is closely following the “fuss” surrounding the summit,while expressing hope that the Russian and US leaders can find “a meaningful solution” to the crisis.

However, Fico, who survived an assassination attempt by a pro-Ukraine activist last year over his opposition to arming Zelensky’s government, claimed thatKiev will nonetheless “pay dearly for the unsuccessful strategy of the West to weaken Russia by supporting the war in Ukraine.”

“Do you remember the old African proverb that I love so much? Would you like me to repeat it?It does not matter if the elephants are fighting or having sex, the grass always suffers. No matter how the meeting of the elephants on August 15 turns out, the grass will suffer –in this case, it is Ukraine,” he said.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry reacted to Fico’s comments on Sunday, accusing him of resorting to “openly offensive rhetoric towards Ukraine and the Ukrainian people, who are fighting… in the interests of the security of the whole of Europe.”

The Slovak leader responded in another Facebook post a few hours later,insisting that he has the right to say what he thinks.

Fico dismissed Kiev’s accusations, but noted thathe understands the “tension and nervousness that must prevail in the political leadership of Ukraine” due to the upcoming talks between Putin and Trump.

"The war in Ukraine has deformed freedom of speech in the EU.Any opinion other than a compulsory opinion is harshly criticized and condemned, even if it is based on objective information. I reject such deliberate deformation of fundamental rights,” Fico said.

(Everyone seems to forget what Russia and millions of citizens working alongside Americans did to end the Nazi rule and the destruction of Europe they would have done. The sacrifice they made to help end the WWII was determined and never ending. Do not underestimate the Russia people and nation.)
