Other French -centered European countries held a series of meetings in Paris. Indeed, what results and achievements in Riyadh and Paris?
from Trump-Protin phone conversation to their representatives in Riyadh
Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Trump, Wednesday, February 23, spoke on a phone call and expressed hope for a visit to the Russian President Vladimir Putin. Although the date of the meeting has not yet been announced, this phone conversation and planning for a meeting regardless of Ukraine and European allies reflects the new complexities of diplomatic and increased mistrust in the Atlantic relations.
after Trump and Putin’s telephone conversation, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in Riyadh. Did An interview in the absence of Ukrainian and European representatives was described by the two negotiating parties.
Kremlin’s foreign policy adviser Yuri Oshakov said in an interview with a Russian television network: “We agreed to consider each other’s interests and at the same time “Follow the bilateral because both Moscow and Washington are interested in this.” He also emphasized that Putin’s and Trump’s visit will probably not be held next week, as it would take more time to prepare the meeting.
Trump’s State Secretary Marco Rubio also said after the Riyadh summit, “Today the first step has been taken from a long and difficult but important path. “Donald Trump intends to quickly end the Ukrainian war and the goal is to achieve a fair and sustainable agreement.” He also announced that the US and Russia have agreed on four principles for the end of the Ukrainian war:

1. Appointing a high -end team by the US to help end the war
1. Starting a conversation about geopolitical and economic cooperation to create appropriate conditions for the end of the conflict
1. Participants’ Commitment at Riyadh Summit to advance the negotiations
Although the Riyadh talks were held behind closed doors, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Maria Zakharova’s remarks showed that Moscow’s representative to Ukraine is not annexed to Ukraine. NATO has emphasized the impartiality of Kiev.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman announced that Moscow expects NATO to refuse its promise to join Ukraine in the coalition and accept Ukraine’s neutrality. Russia calls for the return of Kiev to the provisions of its sovereignty in year 2; A statement in which Ukraine had pledged to remain a neutral country, not participate in military blocks and avoid nuclear weapons.
As the acceleration of US-Russian restoration relations, US relations with Ukraine are becoming darker, and Trump and Zelnsky’s verbal fight in recent days into world media headlines He has found.
The sword that Zelnski and Trump are closed
relationship between Kiev and Washington since last week, after Donald Trump announced a good conversation with Vladimir Putin and they decided to end the war, quickly Has declated.
Trump, by publishing an angry message on his media platform, called Zelksky “dictatorship without election” and accused him of pressuring America to press hundreds of billions of billions of billions. The dollar to “entry into a war that is not victorious”.
These verbal attacks became a set of irony, and Trump eventually said in a Wednesday evening in Miami: “Zelnski is better to do faster, otherwise a country left for him. It won’t stay. »
In response to these statements, Ukrainian President Walodimir Zelnsky at a press conference that Ukraine has begun the war and his popularity is low. (2 %), rejected. He pointed to a poll showing that 5 % of Ukrainian people trust him as their leader. Zelnsky also claimed that Trump was “caught in the trap of Russian Incorrect Intelligence”.
Another axis of Trump and Zelnsky’s dispute with US aid to Ukraine over the past three years, with the US president’s view reaches $ 5 billion. / P>
Zeansky announced that the cost of the war was $ 5 billion so far, of which $ 5 billion was funded by Ukrainian taxpayers and another $ 2 billion from the US and The European Union has been supplied. He also said that the United States had given Ukraine $ 5 billion of weapons and budget assistance.
Now that Zeansky has lost hope for US support for Ukraine in the Trump administration, it still hopes to fill this great vacuum. .
EU failed diplomatic struggle during two sessions in Paris
Coinciding with Trump and Putin’s representatives in Riyadh, French President Emmanuel Macron last week two meetings in Paris with a two-day interval in the Ukrainian War He held the meeting and about 5 countries attended the meeting in person or through video conference. In these security emergency meetings, representatives from Britain, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Denmark and the Netherlands, along with senior EU officials and NATO Secretary -General Mark Route.
During the summit, European leaders announced that they would increase their defense costs and agree that Ukraine should play a role in its future decisions.
One of the issues at the Paris summit was the divergence of EU members in support of Ukraine; The divergence that, according to observers, was due to the difference between European countries and internal differences on American and US policies.
Some EU countries still support US policies, while others may tend to turn away from White House policies. So the European Union now faces two important ways: accompanying US policies and continuing to support Ukraine or adopting more independent policies and reducing dependence on Washington’s strategies.
The fact is that the European Union has always been on various US issues during its political life, and in Ukraine, they also play the role of Washington to ensure peace in Ukraine. They are sewn. For example, British Prime Minister Kir Starmer, after the three -hour meeting attended by the leaders of French, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Denmark, the Netherlands and NATO Secretary General, said: Russia is from a re -attack on Ukraine. ”
even the idea of ”European Unified Army” and US military independence have been rejected by some of the continent’s officials; As with the statements of Polish Foreign Minister Radoslav Sikoreski, who said: The creation of a European united army is a dream that cannot be realized. He continued that his country will always support the development of EU military capabilities.
Ukraine’s crisis remains a complex and sensitive challenge in the global arena after three years. Trump and Putin’s telephone conversation as well as the visit of the two representatives in Riyadh without coordination with Ukraine and the European Union show that international relations are changing in this crisis; A trend that not only enhances diplomatic complexities, but can also weaken cohesion among Western countries.
Despite the seemingly successful meeting of US and Russian foreign ministers in Riyadh, which also included bilateral relations in addition to the Ukrainian issue, two meetings between the continental countries Green had no specific results to resolve the Ukrainian crisis and deepened European internal differences.
Experts believe that the future of the Ukraine crisis is still in a state of uncertainty, given the complexities of internal negotiations and disputes among Western countries. In these circumstances, informal diplomacy and behind -the -scenes interactions can affect the crisis process, but finding a sustainable and comprehensive solution to ending a three -year war in Ukraine is a difficult and complicated thing, and much more than the five hours that Trump claimed, Solution will take the time.
