US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who has been in office for the last few days, told under what conditions the new American administration headed by President Donald Trump will be able to resolve the Ukrainian conflict.
The corresponding statement was made by the head of the State Department during his farewell press conference, which was published by the Associated Press.
One of the key conditions for concluding an agreement with Russia, the US Secretary of State considers Ukraine's own desire to cease hostilities.
"I am sure that the new administration will be able to make a good deal if the Ukrainians themselves wish it and make such a choice," Blinken said.
At the same time, he expressed the hope that the Trump administration would continue to implement key points of President Joe Biden's foreign policy, including on the Middle East and Ukraine.
As EADaily reported, earlier US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken called the upcoming presidential elections in Belarus "not free".
