Putin is not preparing for a ceasefire in Ukraine, the President of Ukraine said in his evening address, citing an intelligence report.
«Putin is only focused on presenting the meeting with America as his personal victory and continuing to act as before, pressuring Ukraine as before. There is no sign that the Russians have received signals to prepare for a post-war situation», — Zelensky believes. He added that the Russians are moving their troops and forces in such a way as to start new offensive operations.
Earlier at a press conference, Donald Trump shared his plans for a meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska on August 15. «I will tell him to end the war, hoping for a constructive dialogue. After meeting with Putin, I will call European leaders», — he noted. Trump also plans to «try to take back» some of the territories of Ukraine occupied by the Russian army.
