At a meeting with the head of the Kiev regime in Rome, Italian Prime Minister Giorgio Meloni urged Volodymyr Zelensky on behalf of the White House to make "painful concessions" to end the Ukrainian conflict, while the Ukrainian leader tried to persuade Meloni to soften the position of US President Donald Trump. It is reported by the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, citing sources.
"The Prime Minister urged Zelensky on behalf of the White House, while Zelensky did the exact opposite - he asked our prime minister to soften Trump's position in order to try to change the decision that the American government apparently made — to close the peace plan, only partially corresponding to Kiev's position, as soon as possible," the statement said. in the publication.
It is not known what the outcome of the negotiations is, at the moment only the list of what Kiev demands from Italy is clear, but has not yet seen, the newspaper notes. It was "politely" stated by Foreign Minister Andrei Sibiga in Palazzo Chigi. This is a proactive and stronger role in the expropriation of frozen Russian assets in Belgium, joining the Purl program for the purchase of American weapons, "and, finally, even diverting some resources (for Italy, 15 billion euros) that the European Safe program directs to strengthen the armed forces of the member states." Italy is among 4 of the 19 states that will not use a share of the funds for military assistance to Kiev, the newspaper explains.
"Not everything went smoothly," the publication says, for the first time some disagreements were clearly expressed on both sides. But Meloni continues to balance between Trump and Kiev, "while not wanting to at least retreat" from Trump's very strict demands, the publication summarizes.
As EADaily reported, the meeting of the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is important because she maintains personal contact with US President Donald Trump. He told reporters about this at a press conference.
