Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had previously held out the prospect of new talks with US representatives. "We are preparing meetings in the United States," he said in his evening video message. Ukraine is expecting news on this in the coming days. According to him, a group led by the Secretary of the National Security Council Rustem Umyerev and Chief of the General Staff Andriy Hnatov will continue the talks with the USA.
Trump: meeting was very good
At his sixth meeting with Putin on Tuesday, Witkoff explained the status of US considerations for peace in the Ukraine war. Kushner accompanied him to the Kremlin for the first time. Putin's foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov said after the five-hour meeting that no compromise had yet been found.
Trump said on Wednesday that Putin had had a "very good meeting" with Witkoff and Kushner. He could not say what this led to. The US representatives had the impression that Putin wanted a deal.
Last weekend, a team led by Umjerow had already discussed ways to end the Russian war of aggression with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Witkoff and Kushner in Florida. Afterwards, both sides spoke of progress - but Rubio also emphasized that there was "still a lot to do".
