Meeting Trump on Alaska and Boyar Duma in the Kremlin: Why Putin reduced the requirements for Ukraine

From meeting on Alaska there is every reason to wait for something fateful - for example, a ceasefire, says political scientist Oleg Posternak. This is evidenced by the fact of Putin's convening of the "Boyar Duma" yesterday in the Kremlin - so he did the last time before the invasion of Ukraine. Two points to be understood in Putin's behavior in the last days, on the eve of ancoryage meeting on August 15.

Therefore, there is a high probability that an agreement on (wheel, limited, incomplete or comprehensive) ceasefire will be. First. If you reached a personal direct meeting at the Presidential level, it means only one thing - a serious correction of Putin's predetermined maximalist position took place. He was either "caught" for concession, or he saw a window of opportunity in Vitcoff's suggestions. Trump also cleared the way to realize them. Second.

Putin gathered a closed meeting with representatives of the Supreme Reds of the Russian Federation, where all those who supported Putin in the war against Ukraine were present on February 21, 2022. Then Putin alternately called for key officials and security officers to voice the position on recognition of the DNR-LNR gangs. At the meeting we notice Lavrov, Bortnikov, Zolova, Naryshkina, Gerasimov and more.
