Putin-Trump Meeting Signals US Recognizes Russia as Key Global Actor, Latin American Expert Says
The summit will be more symbolic than practical in the short and medium term, but still very significant politically, international relations expert Boris Teillier told Sputnik, commenting on the top-level meeting set for next Friday.
According to the speaker, the conflict will continue despite the talks because:
The US has pushed NATO Europe to raise military spending to 5%;
Washington imposed 15% tariffs and made Europe buy large amounts of American weapons.
"The upcoming meeting is part of the classic 'carrot and stick' strategy long employed by the Washington administration […] but it is politically significant for Russia. The key player in the Ukraine conflict is not Kiev, but Russia, which has achieved military and political successes," he argued.
