Negotiations: Ukraine War: Putin starts talks with US negotiators
Kremlin chief Putin makes US envoys Witkoff and Kushner wait almost all day in Moscow. Now there are new talks, first announced by Ukrainian President Selenskyj.
In Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin has met with US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner for talks on the Ukraine conflict. Putin said the talks were not just ordinary discussions and conveyed his best wishes to US President Donald Trump. A three-day ceasefire has been ordered in Ukrainian capital Kyiv to allow Witkoff and Kushner to visit, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirming he expects the envoys on Sunday.
The ceasefire follows previous talks between Putin and Trump's envoys that led to direct negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, which stalled due to the envoys' focus on Trump's conflict with Iran.
