When he formulated his eyewitnesses account for the Russian revolution in 1917, American journalist John Reed is famous for the title of ten days that shook the world.
But 10 days are very long for Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. They shook things within a week.
I started with the Putin-TROMP phone conversation on February 12 and their presidential pledge to start relationships.
It continued with the Munich Conference Security and the defection between Europe and America.
The next stop of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the talks of Russia and the United States: the first high -level personal contact between the two countries since the full Carmel invasion of Ukraine.
It is a week that led to traditional alliances, which left Europe and Ukraine to scramble to respond, and sparked fears of European security and the situation of Russia where it wants to be: at the higher table of global policy, without making any concessions to get there.
One of the pictures dominates Russian newspapers this morning: senior Russian and American officials at the negotiating table in Riyadh.
The Kremlin wants the Russian public and the international community that Western efforts to isolate Russia to the war in Ukraine have failed.
The Russian media welcomes the likely -warm relations with Washington and flowing to European leaders and Kiev.
Trump knows that he will have to make concessions [to Russia] Because he is negotiating with the side that wins in Ukraine, “Tablebid Mouskovsky Komsiomolite is supporting the Kremlin.” It will make concessions. Not at the expense of America, but at the expense of Europe and Ukraine. “
“For a long time, Europe had swollen, thinking about itself as the civilized scientist and the love of Aden. He failed to note that she lost its pants … and now, its old companion has pointed out through the Atlantic Ocean …”
In the streets of Moscow, this level is not discovered.
Instead, people are watching and waiting to see if Donald Trump will really turn into the best new friend of Russia and whether he can put an end to the war in Ukraine.
“Trump is a businessman. He is only interested in earning money,” Nadizda told me. “I don’t think things will be different. There is a lot to do to change the situation.”
Maybe those talks [in Saudi Arabia] “Giorgi will help. It is time for us to stop us to be enemies,” says George.
“Trump is active. It’s active. But will he do anything?” Irina wonders.
“We dream that these negotiations will bring peace. It is a first step. Perhaps this will help our economy. Food and other commodities continue to price here. This is partly due to the private military operation. [the war in Ukraine] And the general international situation. “
Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump spoke on the phone; The two teams met in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A presidential summit is expected soon.
But a few days ago, the moskovsky komsomolets newspaper tried to imagine what the two leaders told each other during a phone call last week.
They reached this delivery:
Trump called Putin.
Vladimir! You have a wonderful country and I have a wonderful country. Do we go and divide the world?
“What was I saying all the time? Let’s do it! …”
make believe? We’ll see.
