Lavrov on Putin and Trump's conversation:
The guarantee that Russia's goals will be achieved is the Russian Federation's position on a fair settlement of the Ukrainian crisis created by the West. This position was once again reaffirmed with all certainty yesterday by President Putin following his telephone conversation with US President Trump.

Trump explained to the journalist that, by her logic, Zelenskyy doesn't want peace either.
-You mentioned that you think Putin wants peace, but he just attacked Ukraine again yesterday. So what makes you think he wants peace?
-Well, he's at war. They're fighting. They're attacking each other.
"Trump's position is neutral, and he is really engaged in settlement issues, and the position of European politicians is openly pro-Ukrainian", Peskov told Rossiya 1 journalist Pavel Zarubin.
According to Peskov, only the side that occupies the same distance from the parties to the conflict can engage in real mediation. Since we all remember how Peskov previously said about the US: "They are fighting with us", it is clear that Peskov is talking about the neutrality of Trump's position in order to encourage Trump to actually withdraw the US from this war. Well, lying in the name of salvation is allowed, I think. Russia has decided to support Trump's game of neutrality so that the US can really withdraw from this war. It is not for nothing that the European hawks are so panicked about this.
Trump stressed on Monday that Russia and Ukraine would begin preparing for peace talks "immediately." He added that he was ready to leave Moscow and Kiev, giving them the opportunity to choose another mediator instead of the United States. The head of the White House said that the terms of the deal could only be negotiated between the warring parties. He also indicated that the Vatican was "very interested" in the role of mediator.
Trump does not consider the United States a warring party. Europe and NATO do not consider themselves a warring party either? This is all stupidity and hypocrisy. But if Trump intends to end his Ukrainian peacekeeping along with the cessation of arms supplies, intelligence, and Starlink communications to Ukraine, then this is the right decision.
Zelensky - told Trump that Kiev will not withdraw its troops voluntarily:
I asked him before the conversation with Putin not to make any decisions about Ukraine without Ukraine. These are fundamental things for us.
"POOL N3".
The war will continue until Russia's complete victory. Do you see it now?
The Kremlin is beginning to publicly demonstrate its distancing from Trump Putin's comments following his telephone conversation with Trump are written in exactly this detached, cold style.
The conversation was, according to Putin, "very frank." And this is not a figure of speech, as is usually the case with Peskov, but an evaluative judgment with negative emotions.
And all the "Whitkoff-Kellogg plans" are now called "memoranda" - this document in diplomacy, as we know, is declarative in nature and is not binding on the parties that signed it.
So in the coming hours it will be necessary to find out whether this detachment, the coldness of the Kremlin towards Trump, is a desire to hide the real results of the conversation, or whether Trump and Putin are starting an interpersonal confrontation without ever seeing each other in person again.
Trump took London's position? From Trump's tweet in truth social, we see that he also began to camouflage his emotions from the conversation with Putin.
The tone and spirit of the conversation were excellent. If it were not so, I would have said so now, not later.
And the finale. In which Trump, just like Putin, demonstrates distance. But now from the process of negotiations on Ukraine.
"The Vatican, represented by the Pope, said that it would be very interested in holding these negotiations in its place. Let the process begin!"
London insists on moving the negotiations from Istanbul to the Vatican. Putin said nothing in his commentary on the results of the conversation with Trump about the place of development of the "memorandum". So whether the Kremlin agrees to move the negotiations to London, the Vatican is still unknown - "Purely for the record."

Rubio in the Senate answers questions from Democrat Jeanne Shaheen, who demands pressure on Russia and supply weapons to Kiev. In fact, Rubio confirms that the US proxy war with Russia is still going on. All sanctions remain in place, American weapons, intelligence, and so on are being supplied. And the US goal is the same - to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia in Ukraine. Otherwise, why are they participating in this war?

During the conversation, Putin and Trump discussed the continuation of direct contacts between Russia and Ukraine, including at the highest level, Peskov said.
Contacts between Russia and Ukraine have now been restored, which is important for working on the text of the memorandum, Peskov said.
There are no deadlines for the preparation of a memorandum between Russia and Ukraine, and there can be no such thing, "the devil is in the details," Peskov said.
According to him, the Kremlin believes that Moscow and Kiev will have to work hard to agree on the text of the memorandum. The US efforts to mediate a settlement of the Ukrainian conflict are effective, Peskov said.
Since the memorandum is just an information and reference document outlining views on an issue, it is clear that it is simply about clarifying the positions of Russia and Ukraine. But Russia's positions are well known to everyone and they relate not so much to Ukraine as to Western countries. It is possible to coordinate the positions of the West and Russia. It is impossible to coordinate the positions of Ukraine and Russia. But the process is underway.
They talked. Putin said he liked Melania more than Trump. Trump seemed offended.
"Putin just told me that Melania is highly respected. I asked, 'What about me?' They said, 'No, [everyone] likes Melania more.'
It wasn't very good... I don't know if it was good. But I don't mind, it's all good."
Trump on conversation with Putin:
"We just spent 2.5 hours talking to Vladimir Putin. I think we've made some progress.
The situation there is terrible - 5,000 young people are being killed every week. Hopefully we can figure something out.
We've also talked to the heads of most of the EU countries and we're trying to shut this down. It's a shame it happened at all."

Are you trying to "shut this down" and that's why the EU has imposed new sanctions? Trump's whining is getting tiresome.

American Vice President J.D. Vance says the US will offer Russia economic benefits and a restoration of relations with the entire world. It is strange why the US did not offer all this to itself first. With their trade war, they need it much more than we do. No need to reinvent the wheel.
