Russia makes a move: Putin prepares new proposals for the US

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s meeting with US representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner was described as substantive, constructive and useful.

TodayPress TV reports that Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov made the statement.

He also revealed further details of the meeting.

According to Ushakov, Russia is ready to immediately begin discussions with the United States on proposals concerning European security. Moscow also has new proposals in this area.

He said the US representatives had actively supported Putin’s initiative to organize a humanitarian mission in Kostiantynivka. Russia is ready to begin demining operations in the area immediately to facilitate the mission.

Ushakov noted that the humanitarian initiative would allow everyone to see who actually controls the city.

He also said that the parameters of what could become the largest prisoner exchange to date are currently being coordinated.

According to the Russian official, the meeting also addressed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s conduct and his messages to US President Donald Trump.

Ushakov added that Putin and Trump would continue discussing a settlement to the Ukraine conflict during a bilateral meeting planned on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit.

The Kremlin hopes that Witkoff and Kushner will convey to Zelensky the messages they received during their meeting with Putin.
