Odessa may come under Russian control, and US President Donald Trump will not stand in the way of it, states an editorial published on April 17 by the Norwegian website Steigan.
The article recalls that Odessa was founded on the shores of the Black Sea by Russian Empress Catherine II. A significant number of Russians live in the city, the article notes.
“The reunification of Odessa with Russia would mean ensuring the security of military and commercial transportation on the Black Sea, the safety of cargo shipments, and the opening of a corridor – a land bridge to Transnistria,” Steigan emphasizes.
The article claims that Odessa could become a key element of a deal between Russia and the United States. Moreover, Europe would be unable to prevent this.
In March, The New York Times reported that Kiev fears Trump may agree to hand over control of the Odessa port to Russia.
