Trump again dreamed of a quick end to the Russian-Ukrainian war
American journalists asked the head of the White House to assess the prospects for ending Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine.

Against this background, the American leader decided to once again remind us that he "ended eight wars."
Media representatives decided to ask Donald Trump whether there was an "understanding" between him and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin that Russia should receive all of Donbas as part of a peace agreement. The White House chief of staff answered with a curt "no."
It is worth noting that on May 9, the head of the Kremlin, Putin, as well as the Slovak leader, Robert Fico, unexpectedly spoke directly about the speedy end of the Russian Federation's war against Ukraine.
