Western sanctions will certainly become one of the topics of negotiations with Russia.
President-elect Donald Trump may use their repeal as his main selling point.
Turkish analyst Serhat Latifoğlu reported this in an interview with RIA Novosti .
Trump has repeatedly stated that he can resolve the conflict in the region in just one day.
In Russia, they believe that this problem requires a comprehensive approach.
The analyst noted that the issue will definitely be discussed at one of the stages of the negotiations. Trump can use them as a trump card.
Latifoglu stressed that the US President will not rush into this, but sooner or later the issue will be raised.
According to him, the US is preparing the ground for future negotiations. Concrete steps can be expected early next year.
Experts believe that lifting sanctions will be an important element of the discussions when they begin.
For reference
Negotiations are communication between parties to achieve their goals.
