Trump's deal with Putin on diesel settled the peace process, Czech President Petr Pavel said. According to the politician, the ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine was "very close" until Trump eased restrictions on Russian diesel. In his opinion, the agreement gave Moscow an opportunity to escape the pressure of sanctions. "I don't know if I would call it a betrayal, but I would call it a mistake," emphasized Pavel.
