13.08.2025Diplomacy's Reshaped Path
Ukrainian media on August 13 primarily focused on the intricate diplomatic maneuvers surrounding the upcoming Trump-Putin summit. Early reports noted drone strikes on Russian oil infrastructure in Bryansk, a recurring theme. The day's main development was President Zelensky's pre-summit video conference with Donald Trump and European leaders. This coordination yielded reports of Trump affirming that territorial issues would be decided with Ukraine and that an immediate ceasefire would be central to the Alaska meeting. A significant shift emerged as Trump signaled "severe consequences" for Russia if peace negotiations failed, and expressed a desire for a swift trilateral meeting with Zelensky and Putin post-Alaska, overturning earlier narratives of Ukraine's exclusion. Conflicting reports circulated regarding territorial discussions, with some mentioning "territory swap" models like an "Israeli occupation of Jordan," while others stated territories wouldn't be discussed at the initial summit. Temporary lifting of sanctions on Russian transactions also drew attention.
