From 50 days, Mr. Trump shortens the deadline for Russia to resolve the Ukraine conflict by 12 days.

According to RIA Novosti, US President Donald Trump said he is reducing the time to reach a ceasefire agreement in Ukraine to 10-12 days.

"I'm going to set a new deadline: about 10 or 12 days from today. There's no reason to wait. I want to be generous, but we're not seeing any progress," President Donald Trump said after talks with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland.

According to President Trump, he has discussed the topic of a ceasefire in Ukraine many times with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"We thought we had everything resolved, but then Russia started launching missiles at some cities like Kiev," the White House chief said.

However, the US President admitted that he loves the Russian people, does not want to resort to sanctions against Moscow and sees the potential for large-scale trade with them, especially rare earth metals. Mr. Trump also said that he still does not rule out the possibility of reaching a peace agreement on Ukraine.

On the Russian side, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at the 11th All-Russian Youth Education Forum on July 28 said that Russia's conditions for resolving the conflict in Ukraine involve refusing to pull Kiev into NATO, ending the alliance's expansion and recognizing territories.

“We insist on what is our legitimate demand, namely, to ensure our security: no participation of Ukraine in NATO, no expansion of this alliance. NATO has gone against all the promises and the adopted documents, expanding the alliance near Russia's borders,” said Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

In addition, Mr. Lavrov added that Kiev must agree to Moscow's territorial conditions enshrined in the Russian Constitution.

“And, of course, the recognition of the realities enshrined in our Constitution is absolutely a prerequisite,” Foreign Minister Lavrov stressed.
