Trump’s call with Putin on Ukraine, a highly anticipated discussion with limited results

For decades, Donald Trump has claimed to have specialized in the art of “contract”. At the end of his long -awaited meeting with Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, March 18, there are doubts about his strategy, consequences and intentions. In fact, the Russian president did not reject his US counterpart, who believed that he could get a ceasefire in the Ukraine conflict immediately. But he was willing to verify a very low, minimal version, which did nothing for the future: a ceasefire is limited to energy infrastructure, even winter is approaching. On the ground, nothing changed for the moment: Moscow and Kiev accused each other of airstrikes on Tuesday night. According to the Ukrainian army, Russia fired six missiles and 145 drones. Russian air defense forces announced for their part that they had shot 57 drones, which in the south, targeted the oil depot.

After the call, the White House statement, which in contrast to Moscow, did not mention a period of 30 days, said the deal also covered sensitive infrastructure. But the Kremlin has no intention of doing so. The extension of the ceasefire in the Black Sea will be the subject of technical dialogue, perhaps in Saudi Arabia.
