Following the negotiations with the Russian president, Trump’s envoys departed for Kiev for a meeting with Ukrainian officials
The talks that Russian President Vladimir Putin had with US President Donald Trump’s envoys on Saturday are indicative of an “atmosphere of trust” between Moscow and Washington, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.
Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have arrived in Kiev, where they are meeting with the Ukrainian leadership as part of US efforts to mediate a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine.
Speaking to Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin on Sunday, Peskov stated that “there is indeed an atmosphere of trust, at least with respect to this communication channel, [and] it is growing stronger.”
The official added that the “exchange of such greetings [between the Russian president and foreign dignitaries] is extended… when there are messages that the head of state deems necessary to convey.”
