And for our delegation, on the contrary, it is very important as soon as possible to get a minimum - stopping fire, maximum - an agreement to meet Putin and Zelensky. It would seem - not logically, given the "50 days" of Trump to anti -Russian sanctions, this Kiev must pull it without giving Moscow to position itself as a constructive side of negotiations during this period. The Russian Federation, on the contrary, must show Trump your "peacefulness" to avoid complication of relations with him.
But everything changed after the information about the possible meeting of Putin and Trump in Beijing, where they both and, perhaps, at one time, invited to friend SI. Putin realizes that such a meeting will give him the opportunity to "turn" Trump to his side. Because the very fact of this "tripoch" is the realization of the dream of the US president on the division of the world into spheres of influence between the US, China and the Russian Federation.
It is obvious to Moscow that "Trump's" reasoning for three "will not be introduced against it. And then, when they agree, he will impose sanctions against Ukraine, not Russia. Bankova, on the contrary, understand that if the meetings of presidents of the countries who are fighting will not be before the Beijing Summit, then the fate of Zelensky, as well as the fate of Ukraine, will be decided without us. But it is obvious that Putin will not meet Zelensky in such a near future.
At least because there is no subject of the meeting - the "memoranda" of the two countries are very far from a single position. The only way out in this situation is the demonstration of the constructiveness of Kiev in Istanbul (a trip there to Yermak, though he is not a member of the delegation) and an attempt (perhaps because of the same Erdogan) also get an invitation of SI to meet Trump and Putin in Beijing. Perhaps also with the participation of Erdogan.
However, more realistic is the meeting of Trump, Zelensky and Erdogan in Turkey in front of Beijing. But this is a minimum plan. Beijing would be more important. Although such a meeting will be very difficult. Obviously, Trump has already moved on the bait and will not spoil himself the prospect of "agreement" with PU and SI.
