The Kremlin has raised the issue of unfulfilled agreements
For the first time in a long while, the Russian authorities have publicly expressed their dissatisfaction with the outcome of the talks between Moscow and Washington. Over the past few days, several senior Russian officials have claimed that the United States has allegedly failed to honour the agreements reached during summit Vladimir Putin і Donald Trump in Alaska last August. The Russian side did not provide any specific details of these agreements.
Assistant to the President of the Russian Federation Yuriy Ushakov stated that only one side had adhered to the agreements reached, whilst the other, he said, “had failed to fully fulfil its part of the commitments”.
Lavrov saw the talks as an attempt to buy time
Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov He went even further and suggested that the summit in Alaska might have been used by Washington to strengthen Ukraine’s position. According to him, the talks could have been a way of buying time to rearm Ukraine and continue military support Kyiv. These statements were made against the backdrop of an intensification of Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian territory, particularly on fuel and energy infrastructure facilities.
Moscow criticises the West’s stance
Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Ryabkov He also claimed that the US was allegedly backing away from the “fundamental agreements” reached during talks between Putin and Trump. Furthermore, he accused Washington of aligning itself with the policies of European allies, whom Moscow traditionally regards as the Kremlin’s harshest critics. Russia is paying particular attention to the stance of the UK and France, which continue to support Ukraine both militarily and politically.
Experts speak of the Kremlin’s disappointment
Analysts point out that Moscow’s current rhetoric may be linked to the general a worsening of the situation for Russia. In recent months, Ukraine has significantly expanded the geographical scope of its strikes against Russian military and energy facilities, whilst Western countries continue to provide support to Kyiv. According to experts, the Kremlin had been counting on Washington to play a more active diplomatic role and to make certain concessions regarding Russia’s demands, but it has failed to achieve such results.
