You can see it very clearly
The head of the German Ministry of Defense reminded of the ongoing Russian attacks against Ukraine - in this context, he noted that the intentions of the head of the Kremlin should be assessed "by actions", and not "by words."

The official emphasized that understanding all of the above will help "all of us more" than "just speculation about the seriousness of the intentions" of the President of the Russian Federation regarding plans for a possible settlement of the Russian war against Ukraine.
Let us remind you
UNN reported that on May 19, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin completed a phone conversation with US President Donald Trump.
Putin and Trump did not discuss deadlines for a ceasefire in Ukraine, although Trump expressed interest in a quick agreement, "although Trump, naturally, emphasized interest in reaching one or another agreement as soon as possible," said Ushakov, Putin's aide on foreign policy issues.
