20.10.2025 ⇢ The Day Trump Doubted Ukraine's Victory
⌨
Russian media today maintained its focus on US President Trump's statements regarding the Ukraine conflict. Early reports highlighted his proposals for a ceasefire along current front lines and denials of discussing ceding Donbas to Russia. Zelensky expressed readiness for three-way negotiations in Budapest, while Moscow suggested the EU was attempting to derail a Putin-Trump summit. The EU's plan to abandon Russian gas imports was a notable development, with the Council approving a ban on transit. By afternoon, attention shifted to Trump's direct statements expressing disbelief in Ukraine's victory and the US refusal to join in confiscating Russian assets. The day concluded with further reports on Trump's skepticism regarding Ukraine's triumph and the US Senate postponing sanctions against Russia until the Trump-Putin meeting.
