U.S. President Donald Trump stated that together with NATO he is "increasing pressure" for a peace agreement for Ukraine. He said this at a press conference with Finnish President Alexander Stubb, according to Clash Report.
He expects Russia and Ukraine to participate in negotiations for a settlement soon.
"This is a terrible war. It is worse than any conflict since the end of World War II. You look at the people who are being killed. It’s Russia and Ukraine. I think we will make a deal there, we will do it. There are many reasons for them to do it. And I think they will come to the negotiating table soon," the president stated.
According to him, the U.S. is selling a lot of weapons to NATO: "And it’s going, I think, mostly to Ukraine. It’s up to them. But they are buying weapons from the U.S. We are making a deal. The best weapons in the world."
The American leader also did not rule out new sanctions against Russia.
