Thus, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte described the assistant of Russian President Vladimir Medinsky at a meeting with US President Donald Trump in the White House. Moscow did not send serious people to Istanbul talks. Rutte remembered how he was in Turkey in the Alliance in May of this year. "Then we really pressed the Ukrainians to send a serious delegation to Istanbul. Then the Russians came with a historian who began to explain Russia's history from 1250," he said.
Rutte emphasized that it was Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US Presidential Specialist Steve Witcoff, who was able to start Ukraine and Russia's negotiations in Istanbul. Trump, for its part, added that the peace agreement between Ukraine and the Russian Federation had to be concluded for a long time. Trump thought four times that the deal would happen, but it never happened.
