According to the interlocutor, Zelensky said Trump during the conversation that “Putin cannot be trusted.” The interlocutor claims that Trump told the leaders that he believes that the peace agreement will need to exchange territories.
“Trump said that it was Vladimir (Zelensky, ed.) And Vladimir (Putin, – Ed.) Should discuss the territory with each other, not he,” the interlocutor said.

“Trump didn’t like it,” he said.
The interlocutor also noted that NATO General and General Mark Rutte were “very active”, and the Prime Minister of Italy, George Meloni, “expressed some good comments.”

Recall that only part of all EU leaders participated in the meeting, and from NATO – Poland and Finland. Finland is also a participant in the “decisive” coalitions, whose negotiations began after the German Chancellor’s press conference Friedrich Merz and Vladimir Zelensky.
Macron after large -scale negotiations stated that territorial issues “would not be the subject of negotiations” with no one except Zelensky.
Merz, commenting on the negotiations, told what positions they were in conversation with Trump. In particular, it was discussed that “Ukraine is ready to discuss territorial issues, but the line will be the starting position.”
“The legal recognition of the occupied territories is not discussed,” he said then.
