- European leaders express concern about the absence of pressure on Russia

On the brightest days, a meeting is scheduled between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. This event has caused concern in European capitals, as according to European officials, Trump has not yet shown pressure on the Kremlin.
A representative of the U.S. State Department, Tami Brice, stated that Trump is leveraging America's economic power to achieve results in negotiations, emphasizing that both sides must take steps to resolve the conflict. She stressed that this is a prolonged conflict, and actions, not words, are decisive.
European leaders are closely monitoring this situation with concern. Analysts indicate that Kyiv hopes for positive outcomes from the meeting, as trust between the parties remains largely destroyed. A senior official from Ukraine believes that any negotiations could be a tactical move by Russia to give Trump a political advantage before the elections.
Meanwhile, Trump has already discussed the possibility of a three-party meeting, which would include Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but the details of this format have yet to be agreed upon.
It is noted that the conversations between Trump and Putin this year have lasted for hours, as Putin often engages in lengthy monologues. Trump, usually impatient, reportedly has sparked various reactions among his aides.
