Zelensky Says Ukraine Is Aware of US-Russia Economic Discussions
President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Thursday, Oct. 8, that Kyiv is aware about various US-Russia dialogues but is not ready to discuss them publicly. Although it was not specified which discussions he was referring to, his remarks followed an earlier report on Thursday that claimed Jared Kushner and Kirill Dmitriev discussed bringing an American investor into Nord Stream.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that his country is aware of the economic discussions between the United States and Russia, but has no plans to disclose the details publicly. Zelensky made this remark in response to a question about the ongoing talks between Washington and Moscow, which Reuters reported involved senior US official Jared Kushner and Russian adviser Kirill Dmitriev.
The talks reportedly aimed to bring American investors into the Nord Stream gas pipelines, a project that has been a point of contention in the ongoing conflict. Zelensky expressed his disappointment in the stalled peace negotiations, calling on US President Trump to increase pressure on Russia and announcing that a Ukrainian delegation would visit the US for further discussions.
