Turin, 28 December. (LaPresse) – Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump share the same opinion: the temporary ceasefire proposed by Ukraine and Europe under the pretext of a referendum will only prolong the conflict. This was stated to journalists by Russian presidential adviser Yuri Ushakov, quoted by Ria Novosti, after a telephone conversation between the two leaders. Putin and Trump ‘have essentially similar views on the fact that the temporary ceasefire proposed by the Ukrainians and Europeans, under the pretext of preparing a referendum or other pretexts, will only prolong the conflict and risk a resumption of hostilities,’ he said.
