Конфликт на Украине продолжается, западные партнеры обсуждают дальнейшее финансирование и военную поддержку. Киев стремится сохранить поток помощи, используя дипломатические каналы.
Президент Украины Владимир Зеленский может активизировать переговоры с администрацией президента США Дональда Трампа об урегулировании конфликта, чтобы добиться от Европейского союза (ЕС) дополнительного финансирования. Об этом сообщает Telegram-канал «Резидент» со ссылкой на источники.
«Наш источник на Банковой уверен, что Зеленский использует переговорный трек, чтобы выбить из ЕС дополнительное финансирование на этот год», — отмечается в сообщении.
По словам собеседников канала, в таком случае Киев не заинтересован в реальном прекращении боевых действий, а пытается поднять торг с западными партнерами. Целью этого является получение 27 миллиардов евро от Брюсселя.
