According to the expert, these three-hour negotiations were not very successful.
The meeting between US Special Representative Steve Witkoff and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin was not very successful, because immediately after the conversation America resorted to some “methods” to put pressure on the Russian President. This opinion was expressed by diplomat Volodymyr Omelyan on air at “Espreso”.
“US Special Representative Steve Witkoff waited for a conversation with Putin in Moscow for more than 8 hours. He waited for Putin to drink vodka with Lukashenko and then set aside time to talk to him. Then they met. I think that these three-hour negotiations were not very successful. Because by a strange coincidence, a few hours later they forgot to renew the license for Russian banks to trade energy resources. This is a serious blow to the Russian financial system and energy industry. There were also reports that Ukraine will receive long-range guided air bombs. Therefore, if they really wanted to, the US has a very large toolbox to put pressure on the Russian Federation,” the expert emphasized.
According to Omelyan, Russia’s position is now heavily influenced by China, which continues to supply the country with the necessary equipment to continue the war in Ukraine.
“Putin knows very well that with current oil prices, which are close to the critical level for the Russian Federation, he will be put in a losing situation. Logically, he should have bargained and raised the rates to the sky, and then accepted Trump’s proposal. It is difficult for me to predict how he will act further. In this situation, much still depends on China,” the diplomat added.

Indeed, bat virus land is the wild card in all of this. Despite Trump’s unpredictability, what china really wants in all of this is the greatest enigma. They could continue the level of support to mafia land, for whatever reason, increase aid, for whatever reason, decrease aid, for whatever reason, and stop aid, for whatever reason.
One thing seems to be sure, at least from my viewpoint, and that is china’s ultimate goal to take Siberia away from the crime syndicate. Thus, the most likely scenario would be for china to continue helping mafia land in around the same type of level to further let it, its economy, and especially its military erode in the fluoroantimonic acid that Ukraine has become for it.
