The ambiguous meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin ended without reaching conclusive results regarding the conflict in Ukraine.
Discussions between Trump and Putin
During the meeting, Trump noted that both parties made some progress on certain issues, while Putin described the meeting as a 'starting point.' This was the first time in nearly a decade that a high-profile Russian leader set foot on American soil.
Ukraine's View on the Talks
Before the meeting, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed disappointment that his country would not be represented. He emphasized the necessity of a strong US position and a meeting format involving Ukraine, the US, and Russia.
Reaction of the Cryptocurrency Market
Experts anticipated volatility in the cryptocurrency market following the meeting, but Bitcoin’s price underwent only minor adjustments. Despite the negotiations failing, BTC's price rebounded slightly, nearing $118,000.
Although no clear outcomes were achieved in the negotiations, the meeting between Trump and Putin may serve as a foundation for future discussions. Ukraine remains a focal point, and its role in this process is critical.
