‼️ PEACE HAS NEVER BEEN THIS CLOSE! Trump, Putin, and Zelensky May Meet in Person Next Week

According to The New York Times, Donald Trump informed European leaders of plans to first hold a private meeting with Putin, followed by a trilateral meeting with Zelensky. The goal is to advance a peace agreement.

The negotiations are expected to involve only the "trio" without European representatives. Despite Europe’s attempts to secure a role in the peace process, sources told NYT that European leaders appear to have accepted Trump’s position with understanding.

It remains unclear whether Vladimir Putin has agreed to the meeting. However, Zelensky, who participated in a call with European leaders, stated he had a "conversation with President Trump." He claimed Kyiv’s and Europe’s positions remain unchanged, while Russia is allegedly "more inclined toward a ceasefire."

Bild reports that one of the "European leaders" was German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Trump told him that the meeting between Putin and Zelensky was "more productive than anticipated."

⚡️ Vladimir Putin named the UAE as one of the suitable venues for his meeting with Trump.

"We have many friends who are ready to help us organize such events. One of these friends is the President of the United Arab Emirates. I think we will decide, but it would be one of the suitable, quite suitable venues," the President of Russia stated.

Putin is not against holding a meeting with Zelenskyy, but conditions for such a talk are still very far from being created. The Russian leader said this following talks with the President of the UAE.

The head of state also noted that the initiative for his meeting with Trump came from both sides.

Putin-Trump Meeting: Diplomatic Breakthrough or Tactical Pause?

The sudden agreement for a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, which could take place as early as next week, has become an unexpected turn in Russian-American relations. Despite the lack of a precise date and continued secrecy regarding the venue, the mere fact of the talks indicates that both sides are interested in dialogue—even against the backdrop of escalating sanctions confrontation and Washington's ultimatums.

😜 Why is the meeting happening now?

🤗 Sanctions Pressure and Threat of Escalation:
Trump toughened his rhetoric in July, threatening 100% tariffs against Russia and its trading partners if Moscow did not cease hostilities in Ukraine within 50 days. The deadline was later shortened to 10 days, and the first restrictions are set to come into force on August 8th.

🤗 Moscow's response (including Medvedev's harsh statement and the veiled nuclear threat) showed that Russia does not intend to yield under pressure. The meeting could be an attempt to avoid further escalation.

😜 Ukraine: Seeking a Format Without Zelenskyy?

🤗 The idea of trilateral talks involving Zelenskyy, voiced by U.S. Special Representative Steve Whitkoff, was ignored by Moscow. This signals that the Kremlin is not ready to discuss the Ukrainian issue under such conditions.

🤗 However, Trump himself mentioned a "good prospect" for a trilateral meeting. Washington may be trying to save face, but real agreements will likely be sought in a bilateral format.

😜 Economic Factor

Markets reacted to the meeting announcement with growth: the Moex index surpassed 2900 points for the first time since June. This shows that business expects at least a temporary easing of tensions.

😜 What Will They Agree On (Or Not Agree On)?

🤗 Sanctions vs. Oil Flows
Trump has already imposed 25% tariffs on India for buying Russian oil and threatens similar measures for China. But if Moscow offers Washington guarantees on energy security (e.g., tacit quotas on supplies), the sanctions blow could be softened.

🤗 Ukraine: Freeze Instead of Peace
A full-fledged settlement is unlikely, but a temporary scenario such as "corridors" for grain exports or prisoner exchanges is possible.

🤗 Nuclear Risks and Cyberspace
Following Medvedev's statements and the responsive deployment of American submarines, arms control will become a key topic. The sides may outline "red lines" in hybrid conflicts.

😃 Will There Be a Breakthrough?
The chances are slim, but even the absence of a result is a result in itself. The very fact of the meeting will reduce tensions, and most importantly—it will show whether Moscow and Washington have room for maneuver. If the dialogue continues, it could signify a shift from confrontation to "managed rivalry."
