The president of the United States, Donald Trump, promised in his electoral campaign that he would resolve the war in Ukraine the day after taking possession. But more than a hundred days have passed and the conflict is still very open between Russia and Ukraine. Despite this, Trump has opened a communication channel with Russian President Vladimir Putin and has erected as an intermediary between the two sides, without known positive results.
The last agreement between the US and Ukraine for which this last country yields the exploitation of a good part of their rare earths to the Americans has meant a change of attitude on the part of Trump towards President Zelenski, to whom he gave a displicent treatment on his first visit to the White House. But, later, after Pope Francis’s funeral the relationship between the two was redirected to the point that Trump was critical of Putin who said he did not fulfill his word.
Can these last events be signs that the end of the war in Ukraine is near? The chief editor of International of La Vanguardia, Ramon Aymerich, answers this question in the video that precedes this text, in conversation with the Vice Director of the newspaper, Enric Sierra.
Ramon Aymerich believes that Russia takes a lot of advantage in this war and the great victory parade that will be held this Friday in Moscow will serve Putin to make a power sample. The chief editor also analyzes the effects of the sanctions that the West has applied to Russia for its invasion of Ukraine and highlights the increasingly protagonist paper that Europe has in the conflict.
