According to the publication, the diplomatic efforts of both sides are aimed at maintaining Trump's sympathies on their side, while not agreeing to Washington's final demands.
Thus, Kyiv aims to improve the terms of the economic agreement proposed by the US, and Moscow wants to improve its position on the battlefield at the expense of Ukrainian territories.
At the same time, experts warn about the difficulties in the negotiation process - it is likely that it may reach a dead end, and both parties may not achieve the desired results for themselves.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that the Russians oppose the proposals of the United States on a ceasefire in Ukraine.
