Donald Trump said that Moscow and Kiev want to solve the Ukraine war and that Vladimir Putin is more inclined to obtain peace after the recent decrease in oil price. “I think Russia, with the price of oil at this time, the oil has dropped, we are in a good position to solve it, they want to understand. Ukraine wants to reach an understanding,” Trump told the Press in the Oval Office. The price of oil, a major engine of the Russian economy, has dropped by about $ 15 on the barrel from the beginning of the year, and OPEC+ will accelerate the increase of production, according to Reuters sources.
