At White House Meeting, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz urged Donald Trump to press Russia for a ceasefire, stressing it must be agreed on “by the next meeting.” Merz said he cannot imagine negotiations moving forward without it, while Trump argued wars he claims to have settled ended without formal ceasefires. The exchange highlights ongoing differences between the U.S., EU, and Ukraine over strategy. Interestingly, Ukraine’s President Zelensky avoided reiterating his past demands for a ceasefire, signaling a possible softening of his stance.

00:00Mr. Chancellor from Germany, a very, very, very great leader.
00:23Mr. President, dear Donald, many thanks for having us today.
00:27I think this is extremely helpful that we are meeting and hearing that the two of you
00:34are having such a good meeting today here in Washington.
00:39The next steps ahead are the more complicated ones now.
00:43The path is open. You opened it last Friday.
00:48But now the way is open for complicated negotiations.
00:52And to be honest, we all would like to see a ceasefire, the latest from the next meeting on.
01:00I can't imagine that the next meeting would take place without a ceasefire.
01:06So let's work on that and let's try to put pressure on Russia because the credibility of these efforts we are undertaking today
01:14are depending on at least a ceasefire from the beginning of the serious negotiations from the next step on.
01:22So I would like to emphasize this aspect and would like to see a ceasefire from the next meeting, which should be a trilateral meeting wherever it takes place.
01:34Well, we're going to let the president go over and talk to the president and we'll see how that works out.
01:41And if we can do that, I will say and again, I say it in the six wars that I've settled, I haven't had a ceasefire.
01:48We just got into negotiations and they one of the wars was, as you know, and the Congo was 30 years, 31 years long.
01:58Another one that we settled last week with two great countries was 35 years going on.
02:03And we had no ceasefires.
02:04So if we can do the ceasefire, great.
02:06And if we don't do a ceasefire, because many other points were given to us.
02:11Many, many points were given to us.
02:13Great points.
