RUSSIA – A high-level US-Russia talks on Ukraine peace in Moscow ended after around 5 hours on Tuesday, with participation of the Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner.

Kirill Dmitriev, Putin’s envoy, who participated in the discussions, described the meeting as “productive” in a post on the US social media company X’s platform, where he shared a photo from inside the talks in the Kremlin.

Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said the talks were “constructive, very useful, and informative,” adding that the discussions “thoroughly” covered a possible settlement over five hours.

Ushakov noted that while “there is no compromise plan for Ukraine yet,” Moscow found some US proposals acceptable, while others were not.

He said Putin told the US side that Russia “could agree to some aspects of the US plan, but others were criticized.”

He added that Moscow had received “four more documents” in addition to Trump’s original 28-point proposal and that the territorial issue was part of the talks.

The Axios news site reported that Witkoff and Kushner are expected to brief Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Europe later Wednesday about the discussions.

The US plan, initially 28 points, was narrowed down during recent discussions with Kyiv, focusing primarily on defining a de facto border under a potential ceasefire.
