Kyiv, Ukraine – The Alaska summit between US President Donald Trump and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, was a master’s degree in how the former intelligence officer used his skills to manipulate a narcissist centered around himself.
This is the impression that the Kiev political analyst who has closely followed the war with Russia, as they told Al -Jazeera, after watching The interaction between Trump and Putin During their saying on Friday, which has not achieved anywhere in stopping the hottest European war since 1945.
The analyst, who asked not to be identified, said, referring to the years spent by Putin as a Soviet spy in East Germany to employ informants.
On an runway at Elsindorf-Richardson, an air base in the Cold War era outside the capital of Alaska, an anchor, Putin received Trump with “Good morning, Jar Dear”, referring to Alaska’s proximity to northeastern Russia.
Trump literally launched a red rug to Putin, gave him a long handshake and ride in the “monster”, and the presidential timozine – and Putin from the back seat.
During a short press conference, Putin continued to thank Trump, repeat what the American president said about the talks and Ukraine and a possible settlement of peace.
Putin launched Trump, including with the support of the assurances of the American leader-such as his claim that he could prevent the Russian-Ukrainian war if he won the presidential vote in 2020 instead of Joe Biden.
“Today, President Trump was saying that if he was president at the time, there will be no war, and I am completely sure that the matter would be so,” Putin, the smiling person, told reporters after the talks. “I can confirm it.”
Katfakko said that Putin’s craftsmanship was brilliantly as a sugar compliment that ended the talks with Trump’s conclusion that “there is no deal until there is a deal.”
“The narcissist was fed with everything that one needs to feed a narcissist to manipulate him – endlessly,” how the American president said, “he said,” How did the American President say, “which he created in the field of hearing hearing.”
“Nothing is tangible”
Putin’s comments at the press conference after the talks lasted for eight minutes and included a lecture on Matthew Caesarean Russia owns Alaska How did the Soviet and state armies have made a partnership during World War II.
More than twice as long as Trump, who spoke only three minutes and admitted that the talks led to an agreement to hold more talks.
The American president said: “There were many points that we agreed upon, most of them, as I would like to say, two great couple we did not get there, but we have made some progress. Therefore, there is no deal until there is a deal.”
Trump and Putin also refused to take questions.
As a result, the summit ended with “nothing tangible,” as Cuttaleko said, as Putin said it should be addressed “the radical causes” of the war before a ceasefire or real steps towards the settlement of peace.
Putin said: “In order to make the future (peace) settlement its duration and long -term, we need to eliminate all the basic roots and the main reasons for this conflict, and we said to it several times, to consider all the legitimate concerns of Russia.”
“The radical reasons” is Putin’s symbol of rejecting Ukraine’s presence outside Moscow’s political shadow and depriving his sovereignty.
China angle
However, the talks were not a complete victory for Putin, and another Ukrainian observer said.
They lasted for less than three hours instead of the seven declared by Russian officials, and there was no broken bread for a joint lunch.
What was discussed behind the closed doors went beyond the war.
“Russia is working through Economy and political geography“Trump’s profit is offered here and now, as well as eliminates the topic of containing China.”
“Based on this, the Kremlin tries to make political concessions that can help Russia to confirm its ambitions in setting a geopolitical center,” he said.
He said: “And Ukraine is just a derivative part – an important but derived part – from these operations.”
The White House also wants to prevent The merger of the interests of Moscow and BeijingTyshkevych said Trump finds it useful to negotiate business and political interactions with Moscow.
“As a result, the United States is not interested in a complete defeat and a crisis for Russia. Unfortunately,” he said.
However, both Washington and Beijing will not agree with the strengthening of Moscow’s geopolitical role in placing a third world power, and therefore the White House “partially understands” Putin’s aspirations.
What next?
For Ukraine, all of this means more hostilities and attacks by aircraft aircraft aircraft Russian aircraft and missiles – while Moscow will enhance mobilization of fighting men of fighting.
One of the prominent military analysts in Ukraine, at the same time, is pessimistic about the results of the summit.
Lieutenant -General Romano, Vice President of the General Staff of the Ukrainian Army, told Al -Jazeera:
“Legitimacy has been added to him in an unacceptable way at all,” Romanino said, while “an international evil man should take responsibility for his actions.”
“Once again, Trump has not fulfilled his promises about sanctions (in Russia), he has not reached a position in the ceasefire,” he said.
The general said that Ukraine will have Ukraine to continue its “complex battle until Trump grows his will and political will.”
He said that Russia will accelerate its attempts to penetrate the defense lines in Ukraine in the east and will resume its destroyed air strikes with drones and missiles.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian authorities will need strategic decisions to start “full and fair” mobilization for men of fighting and focus the economy on military needs.
