Russian President Vladimir Putin is waiting for the 2024 US elections, hoping to negotiate on the future of the Russia-Ukraine war with Donald Trump without the involvement of any European state, Czech President Petr Pavel has said.

“President Putin has made it quite clear that there can be no discussion of any peace talks until the outcome of the election in the United States.

He has thus made it clear that for him, the partner for possible negotiations is none other than the United States.

Nor any of the major European countries,” Pavel told news site Seznam Zprávy in an interview.

Pavel warned that if Donald Trump were to win the US presidential elections, Putin could try to negotiate with him “regardless of what Ukraine or the rest of Europe thinks”.

Donald Trump has claimed that if re-elected, he would resolve the war in Ukraine within 24 hours.

On a political level, except for far-right parties, mainstream European political forces do not have an open communication channel with Trump. »
