Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s timeline for a peace deal between Russia<\/a> and Ukraine<\/a> has sped up, the president said while visiting Nato<\/a> ally Great Britain on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to make a new deadline of about 10, 10 or 12 days from today,\u201d Trump said in response to a question while sitting with the British prime minister, Keir Starmer<\/a>. \u201cThere\u2019s no reason in waiting. There\u2019s no reason in waiting. It\u2019s 50 days. I want to be generous, but we just don\u2019t see any progress being made.\u201d<\/p>\n

Russian and Ukrainian diplomats met in Istanbul last week, agreeing on little more than a prisoner exchange. Ukraine proposed a summit by the end of August between the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy<\/a>, and the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, but Russia\u2019s reply was that such a meeting would only be appropriate if it were to sign an agreement. The meeting was the third negotiation in Istanbul. Putin has not attended any of the talks, despite Trump\u2019s exhortations.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s comments in recent weeks reflect the continuing change from his almost-conciliatory posture. US diplomats asked China to stop exports of dual-use goods that the Washington says contribute to Russia\u2019s military industrial base.<\/p>\n

Trump said he was \u201cdisappointed\u201d in Putin earlier on Monday. \u201cWe thought we had that settled numerous times, and then President Putin goes out and starts launching rockets into some city like Kyiv and kills a lot of people in a nursing home or whatever. You have bodies lying all over the street, and I say that\u2019s not the way to do it. So we\u2019ll see what happens with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Two weeks ago, Trump promised <\/a>a punishing round of new sanctions against Russia if Putin did not begin a ceasefire period for negotiations. An agreement for European allies to purchase billions of dollars in additional armaments for Ukraine, including Patriot missile defense systems, accompanied the 15 July statement during a meeting with Nato\u2019s secretary general, Mark Rutte.<\/p>\n

Trump hosted Starmer and the European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, at his Turnberry golf course in Scotland<\/a>, where ending the war in Ukraine and trade issues have been at the top of the agenda. Before leaving Washington on Friday, Trump said that he was considering secondary sanctions on Russia amid the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Donald Trump\u2019s timeline for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine has sped up, the president said while…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299331,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7654],"tags":[2000,299,657],"class_list":{"0":"post-299330","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ukraine","8":"tag-eu","9":"tag-europe","10":"tag-ukraine"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114932684146903026","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299330"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299330\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/299331"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
