In particular, Tusk was asked about Trump's statements to European leaders that "Vladimir Putin is not ready to end the war in Ukraine."

I do not confirm such a message. But I confirm that the situation is difficult, because there is no trace of goodwill on the Russian side to stop the fire as soon as possible and start honest peace negotiations. Both President Trump and our European "four" have formulated a very clear condition: a ceasefire without any conditions, i.e. before the start of negotiations, so that people stop dying.

The Russians, on the other hand, have used their classic tactic: delaying and confusing various issues in order not to agree to a ceasefire and not to conduct serious peace negotiations. The situation is difficult, I would not say critical, but it has been difficult from the very beginning.

Recall 

As the WSJ reported, US President Donald Trump privately stated in a telephone conversation to European leaders that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is not ready to end the war.
