The US President seeks to leave a mark in history, but his possible failure in negotiations with the Russian Federation can ruin his image.
Trump adheres to a style that is not pleasing to the Russian Federation / Photo OPUS President Donald Trump risks demonstrating the weakness and “look of a fool” if it allows Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to reject the idea of a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine. This opinion was expressed by military analyst Michael Clark in a comment from Sky News.
According to the expert, the American leader adheres to the business style of communication inherent in real estate magnate, and the Russians do not like this approach to negotiations.
“In reality, diplomacy works differently. This happens only in series, not in reality. Putin is very smart and cunning,” Clark said.
The analyst believes that the danger to the US President is that he will insist on a quick deal that will look good only in the first couple of weeks and then fall apart. If this happens now, at the very beginning of his second term, it will noticeably hit the image of Trump, which is concerned about what place he will leave in history.
“Now he really thinks about how he wants to become a” historical president. ”
Clark also explained that Trump’s rhetoric and actions increased the risk of a larger conflict in Europe after joining the post of President of the United States in the coming years. At the same time, the analyst believes that the possibility of the Third World War is unlikely for various reasons.
“If Trump adheres to this policy, if the Russians and some other forces believe that Americans are actually coming from the field of European security, then the chances of a militarized conflict in the next five years are very high. It seems to me, although I do not want to dramatize what we go,”
Proposal for a temporary truceAccording to UNIAN, at a meeting in Jedda (Saudi Arabia), the United States proposed a ceasefire agreement for 30 days without prior conditions. The Ukrainian side supported this initiative, and Moscow has not yet answered. The American delegation went to Moscow on March 12 to discuss a potential pause in hostilities.
According to representatives of the Western security services, there are no signs of Russian ruler Vladimir Putin from his demands, which provide for the “demilitarization” of Ukraine, the refusal to join NATO and recognize the sovereignty of the Russian Federation over the occupied territories.
At the same time, Donald Trump said Washington received “some positive signals” about a possible truce in Ukraine.
