Because of Trump, everyone is pretending that negotiations take place

Translating from the Dialog, May 31:

"Nacke spoke out harshly on a topic that many are trying to hush up: "I can't find other words" 

[Russian opposition journalist] Michael Nacke was outraged by how everyone, due to the fault of the US president, is forced to pretend that there are negotiations on a truce. 

Michael Nacke emotionally spoke about how he is tired of commenting on the strange statements of the Kremlin, which creates the appearance of negotiations and everyone pretends to believe in it. The political scientist also noted that Putin is not actually striving for peace: he is pushing Ukraine to capitulate. 

"Watch his hands: Putin is ready to meet with Zelensky and Trump if progress is made at the talks in Istanbul, but at the same time Russia is doing everything to prevent this progress by refusing to hand over the memorandum. It turns out that Putin is doing everything to prevent a meeting at the presidential level," the blogger said. 

Then Michael Naki suddenly said: "I honestly feel like an idiot when I talk about all this, that is, the whole world is forced to pretend that we do not know that Russia does not go to any real negotiations, but every time repeats the same nonsense, calling for Ukraine to capitulate, while not having any decisive successes on the front that could justify such demands of the Russian Federation."

"Because of Trump, you, Ukraine, Europe, I have to pretend that there is a negotiation process going on, which in fact is not going on. This schizophrenia is enough. I can't find any other words," the political scientist concluded."
