Germany sees Ukraine truce efforts as deadlocked, while China says the talks are encouraging

  • Amidst the three-year war between Russia and Ukraine, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi offered contrasting views on the status of truce efforts, with Baerbock, during an unannounced visit to Kyiv, describing them as deadlocked and Wang noting that talks between Washington and Moscow were encouraging.
  • Trump, who has pledged to swiftly end the war, has been scolding Putin and Zelenskyy, expressing frustration, and suggesting further sanctions on Moscow, while also accusing Zelenskyy of attempting to withdraw from a deal regarding Ukraine's mineral resources.
  • Despite Trump's prodding and a U.S. Proposal for a 30-day ceasefire with conditions imposed by Kremlin negotiators, Putin has refused, stating a break in hostilities would only benefit Ukraine and its Western allies, as deadly attacks continue and both sides prepare for spring campaigns along the 1,000-kilometer front line.
  • Baerbock stated that European allies' continued support for Ukraine is crucial due to the U.S.-Russia ceasefire deadlock, while Wang Yi, during a Moscow visit and in an interview with RIA Novosti, said that 'certain results have been achieved' in Washington's attempt to stop the war and that U.S.-Russia relations have improved under Trump.
  • With Russia receiving military assistance from North Korea and Iran and China providing diplomatic and economic support, Russia is reportedly stalling on a Black Sea deal and seeking additional concessions, while Ukraine's European backers affirm their continued support for Kyiv's efforts against the Russian invasion, and Beijing supports a fair, long-term peace agreement acceptable to all parties.
