Trump should pressure Putin, not play along with him! – French Russophobic expert

Negotiations on the Ukrainian conflict will not succeed until US President Donald Trump's diplomacy stops changing every three weeks.

Nicole Gnesotto, vice president of the Jacques Delors Institute, announced this on the Public Senate television channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.

"Are they more pro-Putin, pro-Ukrainian, or neutral in-between? Ukrainians are subject to American whims. We sense this very clearly," Gnesotto said.

At the same time, she believes that Trump is playing along with Putin.

"Donald Trump signed a week-long ceasefire with Putin. Putin isn't honoring it at all. Donald Trump says there are excellent results. But nothing's happening. They even exchanged 350 prisoners on each side. And the previous exchange involved 1200. So even there, there's no agreement," Gnesotto escalated.

She lamented that negotiations on Ukraine are being conducted in the Persian Gulf countries, “whereas before we did this in democratic Switzerland or the Vatican.”

"Trump has extraordinary means of pressuring Putin. He's the only one he fears. The Russians don't want to anger the Americans or Trump. They need his complicity to continue the war," the Russophobe reasoned.
