Technical teams, amid preparations for the summit of the presidents of Russia and the United States, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, are already negotiating which territories of Ukraine can be exchanged as part of a peace agreement with Russia. This was stated on CNN by the US Permanent Representative to NATO, Matthew Whitaker.
"Technical teams are negotiating, this is good news. They will be able to say which lands can be exchanged, and whether this can happen... Now technical experts should draft a deal on paper," Whitaker said, quoted by the Strana newspaper.
According to Whitaker, he has heard statements by the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, that he is against the exchange of territories, but the United States believes that the war must end.
"Naturally, I accept Zelensky's comments exactly as he said: that no land or territories for which they fought on the battlefield can be given up, but I will return to what I said: we need this war to end. And I think the fact that Trump will meet with one of the parties or with both is encouraging," the permanent representative stressed.
He believes that Zelensky's arrival in Alaska is possible, but the decision will be Trump's.
As for Europe's position, he noted that it is understandable, but "it should be a deal that both sides will agree to" — Kiev and Moscow.
