Russia vs Ukraine: First contact with US inspires hope – Putin

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that the first contact with the U.S. gives some hope that the Ukraine war will be resolved.

Putin stated this on Thursday at the Federal Security Service meeting.

The first contacts with the new U.S. administration give some hope. There is a mutual desire to work on restoring relations.

It was gathered that Russia and the U.S. are cosying up, bonding over the Ukraine war, holding meetings to find ways to end the conflict amicably, and teaming up in the United Nations.

The two countries have also hailed each other over the war and hinted at signing a new economic deal that could potentially change the world order.

News360 Info reports that Russian and U.S. diplomats met on Thursday in Turkey for talks to resolve disputes over their respective embassies in Washington and Moscow—a first test of their ability to reset wider relations and work towards ending the war in Ukraine.

Until last year, the Kremlin had described Russia’s relations with the U.S. as below zero under the former Joe Biden administration.

However, his successor, President Donald Trump, has upended that policy and moved swiftly since taking office last month to open talks with Moscow, pledging to fulfill his repeated promise to bring a quick end to the war.

The two leaders have reportedly also interacted over the phone to discuss the war.

On Thursday, Putin warned that while Russia and the U.S. are ready to cooperate, some Western elites may try to undermine dialogue between them.

Meanwhile, the Kremlin has ruled out any negotiation over the status of five Ukrainian regions it claims to have annexed, despite not fully controlling four of them.

The territories which have become subjects of the Russian Federation, which are inscribed in our country’s constitution, are an inseparable part of our country,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
