The administration of US President Donald Trump is not going to continue to finance the armed conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
This was stated in an interview with Fox News by White House spokeswoman Caroline Leavitt. She stressed that Washington's main goal is peace talks.
"We are not going to just write checks for a war going far away from us, without a real, long—term peace," the speaker said.
At the same time, she stressed that a compromise involving concessions from both sides is required to conclude such a peace agreement.
"President Trump wants peace. But for negotiations, both sides must sit down at the table and have a dialogue. In a good deal, both sides usually leave a little dissatisfied. Vladimir Zelensky does not understand this," Leavitt explained.
Recall that, according to The Washington Post, the administration of Donald Trump is exploring the possibility of stopping the supply of military aid to Kiev after an altercation between the American leader and the head of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, at the White House.
This possibility is considered as a response to the behavior of the Ukrainian president in the Oval Office and "his obvious intransigence regarding the peace process."
As reported by EADaily, earlier US President Donald Trump said that Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky does not seek to make peace.
