Trump: Ukraine should immediately agree to talks with Russia in Turkey

He wrote about this on Truth Social. 

“President Putin of Russia doesn't want to have a Cease Fire Agreement with Ukraine, but rather wants to meet on Thursday, in Turkey, to negotiate a possible end to the BLOODBATH. Ukraine should agree to this, IMMEDIATELY. At least they will be able to determine whether or not a deal is possible, and if it is not, European leaders, and the U.S., will know where everything stands, and can proceed accordingly!” the American leader said.

He also added that he was beginning to doubt that “Ukraine will make a deal with Putin, who's too busy celebrating the Victory of World War II, which could not have been won (not even close!) without the United States of America.”

“HAVE THE MEETING, NOW!!!” Trump summarized.

• In a nighttime address on May 11, Russian leader Vladimir Putin claimed he was ready for direct talks with Ukraine in Turkey next week, but he dismissed the idea of a 30-day truce. In response, U.S. President Donald Trump said he would keep working with both sides and predicted that the coming week would be “great.”
• French President Emmanuel Macron called Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin’s proposal to resume talks on ending the war with Ukraine in Turkey insufficient. In his opinion, a meeting in Istanbul is possible only if there is a ceasefire.
• Trump's special representative for Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, emphasized that any talks are only possible after the start of a 30-day ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine.
