Kremlin Rejects Trump's Oil Price Strategy for Ukraine, Cites National Security
Jan 24, 2025, 09:59 AM
The Kremlin has stated that the ongoing conflict in Ukraine is rooted in national security concerns rather than oil prices, directly responding to remarks made by U.S. President Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Trump suggested that lowering oil prices could pressure Russia into ending its military actions in Ukraine. However, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissed this notion, emphasizing that the conflict arose due to threats to Russia's national security and the West's refusal to address Moscow's concerns. Peskov also mentioned that Russian President Vladimir Putin is open to discussions with Trump, awaiting signals from Washington.
