US President Donald Trump said that Ukraine and Russia are supposedly close to concluding a peace agreement. At the same time, he admitted that after the war, the territorial contours of Ukraine may change.

The American leader said this in an interview with the 60 Minutes program.

According to Trump, he believes in the possibility of reaching agreements between Kyiv and Moscow. However, his statement on the future of Ukraine raised questions about possible territorial concessions as part of a potential peace agreement.

“I think we will do it, and I think it will happen, and as a result they will get a Ukraine in a slightly different form,” the US president said.

Trump also once again emphasized the difficult personal relations between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Russian dictator Putin.

The American president admitted that Zelensky’s negative attitude towards Putin can be explained by a full-scale Russian invasion. At the same time, he stated about the alleged disrespect shown earlier towards Russia, in fact putting it in the same context as the Russian military aggression.

At the same time, Trump did not specify what territorial changes he allows and whether the relevant scenarios were discussed with the Ukrainian side.

Currently, the assumptions voiced by the American president do not indicate the achievement of specific agreements on changing the borders of Ukraine.

As a reminder, Ukraine has repeatedly emphasized that the issues of territorial integrity and sovereignty are fundamental in the context of any negotiations on ending the war.
