US envoys have 'more effective proposals': Ukraine

Washington's envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, have introduced new and more effective proposals to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an effort to end the ongoing conflict with Russia, according to a senior Ukrainian official. Both Witkoff and Kushner, who are affiliated with former President Donald Trump, met with Zelenskyy and discussed their plans for peace during their recent visit to Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital.

While neither Witkoff nor Kushner announced any breakthroughs, the Ukrainian official stated that the proposals are more effective than those presented in previous talks. Zelenskyy expressed hope that the United States and Europe could support Ukraine in achieving a lasting peace, especially as Russia continues its attacks during winter.

He also urged direct negotiations between the two leaders to resolve territorial disputes. Zelenskyy thanked the envoys for their efforts to bring peace to Ukraine, which has been enduring Russian strikes since 2022.
