WINDS OF PEACE: Kremlin Welcomes Trump’s Readiness To Negotiate With Putin – Russians Have No Preconditions – Both Sides Are Now Preparing the Meeting
January 11, 2025
While the outgoing Joe Biden administration from hell is still trying to escalate the military conflict in the Ukraine, there’s already a lot of diplomatic work in progress, and a meeting between Donald J. Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin appears to be an upcoming reality – confirmed by both Trump and by the Kremlin.
The Russian Government says it welcomes Trump’s readiness to meet with Putin, a senior Moscow official confirmed yesterday (10).
Associated Press reported:
“Russia attaches no conditions to the possibility of face-to-face talks, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters during a conference call.
Trump said Thursday that ‘Putin wants to meet’ and that a meeting is being set up. He indicated that efforts to end the almost three-year war between Russia and Ukraine were behind the overtures for talks. ‘We have to get that war over with’, Trump said when referring to his possible meeting with Putin.”
Watch: Trump says he is setting up a meeting with Putin.

Trump has been a fierce critic of U.S. participation in Ukraine’s war effort, while calling for peace.
He has called Putin ‘pretty smart’ for engaging Ukraine militarily during the weak Biden regime, and has acknowledged Russia’s military might both today and in historical conflicts.
Biden has ramped up money and arms deliveries in his final stretch in office, trying – in vain – to strengthen Ukraine’s position for peace talks.
“’We are aware that the (Biden) administration will try to leave as difficult legacy in bilateral relations as possible for Trump and his team’, Peskov said.”
Watch: Putin says he is open to a meeting or summit with Trump at any time.

Meanwhile, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky – progressively removed from the initial talks – calls for assurances about its future protection from Russia, and not from Europe alone.
“’European security guarantees are not sufficient for Ukraine that fights such an enemy as Russia. We need joint security guarantees from the U.S. and Europe’, Zelensky said.”
