Investing.com — Russian President Vladimir Putin has accepted some U.S. proposals to end the war in Ukraine while rejecting others, according to the Kremlin on Wednesday.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that Russia is ready to meet with U.S. negotiators “as many times as it took to reach an agreement” on Ukraine.
The statement follows talks in Moscow between Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, and son-in-law Jared Kushner. The discussions extended into the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Peskov emphasized it would be incorrect to say Putin had rejected the U.S. proposals, describing the meeting as a first face-to-face exchange of opinions. A Kremlin aide had earlier stated that “compromises have not yet been found.”
The Kremlin indicated that work on a possible Ukraine deal is currently being conducted at the expert level, adding that such talks have a better chance of being productive if carried out without public commentary.
Russian officials expressed appreciation for Trump’s efforts, with Peskov stating that the Kremlin “highly values Trump’s political will to try to find a resolution and is grateful to him for his efforts.”
The Kremlin also noted that the results of ongoing expert-level work should form the basis for high-level conversations between Russia and the United States.
When asked for additional details, the Kremlin declined further comment, stating it does not favor “megaphone diplomacy.”
