This was stated during a press conference with Trump in London on Thursday, where Starmer said that both sides discussed increasing pressure on Russia to push it towards reaching a ‘permanent peace agreement,’ according to Western media. Russia asserts that Western policies against Moscow have harmed the global economy more than they have affected it. Meanwhile, Donald Trump confirmed that the conflict in Ukraine no longer threatens to escalate into a world war, noting that ending wars is a difficult task, and adding that he is making significant efforts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. Trump stated at the press conference that he hoped for a quick resolution to the situation in Ukraine due to his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin. In early September, the Russian president declared the possibility of reaching an acceptable agreement in Ukraine. He also noted that all Russian attempts to peacefully resolve the Ukrainian issue have failed. However, according to the Russian president, if agreements on a permanent peace in Ukraine are reached, Russia will fully implement them.
