According to the Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski, in Ukraine they perceive the negotiations between the teams of US President Donald Trump and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin regarding the end of the war as a certain "push" in the situation. However, there is a certain nuance that most people do not pay attention to.

Points of attention

  • Sikorski emphasizes the importance of establishing confidential channels of communication and investigating intentions before finalizing deals.
  • The talks between the White House and Kremlin present a unique dynamic influenced by Trump's unconventional approach to diplomacy.

The head of Polish diplomacy draws attention to the fact that such negotiations "contradict the canons of diplomacy."

According to the traditional canon, first you open some confidential channel of communication, investigate the intentions of the other party, then build some trust, and only then do the leaders bless the deal, which is almost ready.

"Ukrainians say that this gives hope for the acceleration of certain processes, which they hope will lead to a lasting peace. Therefore, they express a vote of confidence in Donald Trump," the head of Polish diplomacy emphasized.
