Both sides lost a huge number of soldiers.
But now on the streets in Russia, some feel like possible by the possible ending of sanctions imposed on the war and west. Some are optimistic that hostility with the United States, at the top during the leadership of the former President Joe Biden could end up as if President Donald Trump is working bring warred side at the table.
Beating reprisals, all surveyed in Russia refused to provide a surname, given the Moscow punching in disagreement.
Katherine, a Petersburg Psychiatrist protesting against the war in 2022, said he supports peace at all costs.
“My clients happily say,” Well, Americans are on our side again. That’s good because America is after all, “she said.
“Everyone understands that he better be friends with America than fighting. Don’t really like to hate the Russians. And if they could do not hate Americans anymore, every moment, then it is just as great.”
Elena, also from St. Petersburg, said, Bravo, Trump. Let at least glue them and (Putin and Zelensky) at the negotiating table while he picks up his dinners. ”
The sudden switch in Washington in politics according to Ukraine sent shock waves through the world.
After the stormy meeting of the President of the United States, Donald Trump and his Ukrainian colleague, Volodymyr Zelensky, in the White House in February, stopped military assistance and the exchange of intelligence with Kiev.
Faced with the appearance for rasing the cargo for only Kyivsk defense, Ukraine European Allies are izzing.
French President Emmanuel Macron proposed the deployment of peacekeepers in Ukraine as part of the possible solution and the expansion of the Atomic Arsenal in France.
The new position of Washington in Ukraine, however, welcomed in Moscow.
“New (USA) administration quickly changes all foreign policy configurations. It largely coincides with our vision,” the spokesman of the Kremlin’s spokesman told Russian journalists recently said.
The freezing of military aid is “a solution that could really push the regime of Kiev according to the peace process,” sandpaper added.
5. Marta, US Secretary State Secretary Marco Rubio, who used to call Russian Prime Minister Putin “Bastforcer” and “Gangster”, described the conflict in Ukraine as a proxy war between Washington and Moscow.
Sands mentioned that “this is completely echoing the position that our president and the Minister of Foreign Affairs have repeatedly expressed”.
Russian media aligned on the state were also optimistic.
“Our idea of peace is clear and obvious: Everything will happen as we see,” said Kremlj-aligned Talk Show Government Vladimir Solovyov.
“Pay attention that Trump did not say anything about the aggression of Russia, none of the putin-style insults – even close to you as long as it is necessary, by referring to the former American president who used to call the” killer “.
It seems that tensions between Ukraine and Washington facilitated fire exchanges in the White House between Trump and Zellenic. The team of Meetings of Ukrainian delegates in Saudi Arabia agreed on the 30-day movement in the war in the war. Russia told This studies the development with narrowing.
However, several remained skeptical.
“They should do something, but what? Trump says one thing today and practically the opposite tomorrow,” Evgeniya said, who works as a translator and beats from St. Petersburg. “Zelenskyy has uncertainty, ambitions, … and Putin has a huge country with resources, an idiotic vision of history and crazy friend Medvedev,”, who introduced themselves as liberally while in function, but now more than passengers.
Tatyana, a business woman from Moscow, despaired.
“Trump is overcome with what Russia did in his homeland, his own people, his own economy,” she said.
“Why is Putin Courde with Trump? (Putin) does not clearly agree. In addition to (Northern), no one has ruined in the military industry, but what will the war stop? There will be a bunch of unemployed, without money and generally scary. ”
Although Trump’s position is far from Biden, the new American administration is not entirely cute on the Kremlin.
On Friday Trump endangered To kill Russia with additional sanctions if the Putin does not present the seat in the negotiating table.
“Since Trump is elected president of the United States and today I try to not leave over optimism thanks to my efforts” Alexey Malinin, the founder of Moscow for International Interaction and Cooperation and a member of the artificial club Digoriya, said Al Jazeera.
“Conflict is very serious, the positions of the parties are largely irreconcilable, and Ukraine does not show readiness without floating detained glasses and glasses, despite numerous demonstration and insignificant curators in our direction, may leave their peace at all times.
“Its negotiating approach often consists in the fact that if the opposite side disagrees with it, it changes access to intense pressure, where it is unpredictable what will be the outcome.”
Malinin, however, welcomed Trump’s apparent readiness to hear Moscow requests.
“Stable peace is possible in the following conditions: Ukraine officially bypasses the desire to join the NATO and provides a heavy weapon,” including heavy weapons, including difficult weapons, “including severe weapons.”
“Such an agreement must be officially supported by a wide range of intermediaries: not only American and European countries but also countries that weigh more – for example, China, India, Brazil, South Africa, Qatar and others.”
However, apparently the US willingness to compromise with Russia must not share Ukrainian European allies or Ukrainians themselves.
“I think there is a window of the opportunity that can be lost,” said a taller Russian analyst Oleg Ignat’s International Crisis Group for Al Jazeer.
“The problem is that now, Europe and Ukraine do not have a unique position. Split between them could lead to negotiations that do not take place or collapse.”
