Kremlin Says Steve Witkoff Is Taking Putin's Comments On Ukraine Ceasefire Proposal To Trump

5 weeks ago Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov says Russian President Vladimir Putin met with U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff to discuss details of the American proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in the war with Ukraine. Putin said Thursday he supported a truce in principle but set out issues that need to be addressed before it is agreed. In a post on his Truth Social site Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump said “that there is a very good chance that this horrible, bloody war can finally come to an end.” Ukraine has already endorsed the proposal. Russia’s army has gained battlefield momentum, and analysts say Putin likely will be reluctant to rush into a ceasefire.
