Trump's special envoy is looking forward to meeting with Putin.

Following the conclusion of the talks in Abu Dhabi, there is hope that a lasting peace is within reach.

This was stated by U.S. President’s Special Representative Steve Whitcoff, according to RBC-Ukraine.

Russian propagandists from TASS asked Whitcoff how he assesses the prospects for ending the Russian-Ukrainian war.

The special representative of Donald Trump expressed hope that, following the trilateral talks between Ukraine, the U.S., and Russia in Abu Dhabi, peace has indeed moved closer.

“I hope so,” Whitcoff replied.

It is worth noting that on November 12, Donald Trump’s special envoys—Jared Kushner and Steve Whitcoff—arrived in Moscow on an official visit. Their meeting with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is scheduled to take place in the morning.

The main goal of the talks is to discuss the results of the meeting between delegations from Ukraine, the U.S., and Russia in Abu Dhabi, which took place the day before.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that it is precisely Whitcoff and Kushner could influence Putin’s position on the war against Ukraine.
