Russian President Vladimir Putin has held three hours of talks with US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff at the Kremlin, focusing on the Ukraine war.
The meeting, which took place on Saturday, was seen as a significant diplomatic effort to address the ongoing conflict.
While details of the discussions have not been fully disclosed, both sides have expressed a willingness to continue dialogue.
The talks come amid international pressure for a peaceful resolution to the war, which has caused widespread devastation and economic hardship.
The involvement of Kushner, who is known for his close ties to former President Donald Trump, has raised eyebrows, with some speculating about the motivations behind the meeting.
The outcome of these talks could have far-reaching implications for global security and stability. As the world watches, there is cautious optimism that diplomatic efforts may lead to a de-escalation of tensions.
However, many remain skeptical, given the complexities of the conflict and the deep mistrust between the parties involved.
