Talks between Russia’s president and Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff on ending the nearly four-year war in Ukraine were “constructive”, but there has been no breakthrough, Yuri Ushakov, senior adviser to President Vladimir Putin, told reporters on Wednesday.
Ushakov called the five-hour conversation “rather useful, constructive, rather substantive,” but added that the framework of the US peace proposal was discussed rather than “specific wording.”
