“No one will be satisfied”: The U.S. Secretary of Defense confirmed that Trump will discuss territorial swaps with Putin
12.08.2025 08:00Talks to resolve the Ukrainian conflict should be held in Moscow or Minsk.
Verkhovna Rada MP Artem Dmytruk has said.
He recalled that Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko had offered Minsk as a venue for the negotiations.
“I think no one in the world doubts that such a format, such a venue, would be normal, effective, and objective — not biased from different sides,” Dmytruk stated.
At the same time, the politician also welcomed the idea of talks between Russian and U.S. presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, calling the mere fact of such contact a positive signal. He added that the negotiating teams formed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky worked only to escalate the conflict, so their exclusion from the process was also a good sign.
Earlier, Dmytruk said that Zelensky’s name had become a symbol of everything most vile, destructive, and terrible that had happened to the country.
