Former President Trump has announced that he has set his own deadline for peace talks regarding the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Emphasizing his lack of allegiance to either side, Trump stated that Russia has made significant concessions by refraining from fully seizing Ukraine. However, frustrations are growing within the U.S. government, with Senator Marco Rubio warning that if progress is not made soon, the U.S. may abandon its efforts to negotiate peace. Amidst these developments, Trump has expressed optimism about a potential deal involving both Russia and Ukraine, but he also hinted at the possibility of walking away from negotiations if no significant advancements occur in the coming days. The urgency of the situation has heightened as Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy has cut short his international trip in response to ongoing Russian attacks.
