A next peace agreement? The emissary of US President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, said on Monday, April 14, three days after a new meeting with Vladimir Putin, that the Russian president wanted a “lasting peace” in Ukraine.
“We can be about to get something very, very important for everyone,” said Steve Witkoff also in an interview with the conservative Fox News Channel.
Donald Trump aims to end the war in Ukraine, who has made tens of thousands of deaths for more than three years, and has broken the diplomatic isolation imposed by Westerners in his Russian counterpart.
Its administration organizes separated conversations with high Russian and Ukrainian officials, which have not been, for the moment, to a global cessation of hostilities.
“Stability”
Diplomatic negotiations extend, without determining Moscow concessions. kyiv and some western capitals accuse Russia, whose army is more numerous and better equipped in the front, dragging discussions on purpose.
Steve Witkoff met with Vladimir Putin on Friday, April 11 in St. Petersburg for the third time from Donald Trump’s return to the White House in January. This meeting of more than four hours, in the presence of two nearby advisors of the Russian president, Iuri Ochakov and Kirill Dmitriev, turned out to be “convincing,” said the US emissary, according to which he is “emerging.”
Donald Trump’s representative also suggested that “commercial opportunities” between the United States and Russia were part of the negotiations and could “provide real stability to the region.”
