Trump: Donbas Must Be “Divided” to End War

The US president denied the FT report that he had urged Zelensky to cede the entire Donbas region to Russia. Instead, the Ukrainian region should be “divided” along the current front line to end the war, Trump said. The Ukrainian region of Donbas must be “divided” to end the war, with most of it remaining under Russian control. This statement on ending the Russian-Ukrainian war was made by US President Donald Trump, according to dw.com. “Let everything remain as it is. It is already divided. I think 78% of the region is already occupied by Russia,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One. “Later, they will be able to come to some agreement between themselves. But now, both sides of the conflict must stop at the front line – go home, cease hostilities, and stop killing people,” said the head of the White House.
