Unlike Beijing and New Delhi, which have indirectly stated they plan to continue doing business with Moscow despite Trump\u2019s ultimatum for Russia to make progress toward ending the war in Ukraine, Moscow appears to fear the potential consequences of U.S. tariffs on countries still purchasing Russian oil.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In July, Trump initially announced a 50-day deadline for Russia and Ukraine to end the war.

Nevertheless, the Kremlin does not seem willing to take the risk of relying on their continued support, especially given that neither Beijing nor New Delhi has explicitly stated that they will continue purchasing Russian oil despite Trump\u2019s tariffs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since energy has traditionally been the main driver of Russia&#8217;s foreign policy, the country\u2019s leadership is likely well aware of the long-term economic consequences if it becomes unable to sell its oil to India and China. The very fact that Witkoff and Putin, according to the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, <\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/united24media.com\/latest-news\/trump-maintains-august-8-deadline-for-russia-to-commit-to-peace-threatens-tariffs-10528\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">discussed<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cthe state of the global economy and energy markets,\u201d clearly suggests that the Russian leadership is on alert over Trump\u2019s threats. It is, therefore, no surprise that, even before Witkoff came to Moscow, the Kremlin reportedly <\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/russia-considers-air-truce-proposal-to-trump-without-ending-war-bloomberg-says\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">signaled<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that the Russian military might suspend its long-range strike campaign in Ukraine as a potential concession to the United States.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such a move would undoubtedly allow the Ukrainian military to consolidate, freely receive American and other Western shipments of weapons, and prepare for another round of fighting. In other words, if Putin makes such concessions to Trump, Russia will effectively give up on its significant trump card \u2013 drone and missile strikes \u2013 and help its opponent secure its rear positions and logistics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, if Putin agrees to a full ceasefire in exchange for Kyiv\u2019s de facto recognition of the Russian occupation of southeastern Ukraine and Trump\u2019s \u201capproval\u201d for Moscow to continue supplying oil to India and China, the Eastern European country would gain an opportunity to slowly and quietly prepare for another inevitable war in the not-so-distant future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But such an outcome can only freeze the conflict in Ukraine \u2013 not end it. It takes two leaders \u2013 Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky \u2013 to sign a peace agreement. Putin has, however, repeatedly <\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rferl.org\/a\/putin-ready-peace-talks-not-with-illegitimate-zelenskiy-\/33294979.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">refused<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to meet with Zelensky, questioning his legitimacy. But even if he goes back on his word and accepts Trump\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.i24news.tv\/en\/news\/ukraine-conflict\/artc-report-trump-plans-direct-talks-with-putin-and-zelensky\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">proposal<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to hold a tripartite summit with Ukrainian leader and the U.S. President, Russia and Ukraine are very unlikely to sign a peace deal anytime soon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From Kyiv\u2019s perspective, under the current conditions, any agreement that does not include Russian withdrawal from Ukraine\u2019s internationally recognized territories would be considered a defeat. Although the Kremlin has more room for political maneuvering and can portray almost any concession to Kyiv and the West as a \u201cgreat victory\u201d to the Russian public, it is unlikely to afford ending the war without achieving any of its strategic goals in Ukraine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That is why the upcoming meeting between Putin and Trump \u2013 whether in the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, or elsewhere \u2013 is unlikely to lead to lasting peace in Ukraine.
