"First, he is probably the only person in the world that can be a mediator to reach peace between Ukraine and Russia. Why is Putin respects and are in many ways afraid of Donald Trump. Second: we need a truce, and we need cease to give a ceasefire. And this date should be on April 20. " In his opinion, the Russian dictator remains the only one who delay the ceasefire, and if the Kremlin does not take steps before the end of the war, it will need to be forced to this rigid sanctions.

"If Putin is the only one who does not accept the ceasefire, because the US, Europe and Ukraine want it - if it does not agree, we will have to impose enormous sanctions from the US and Europe," he said.
