In an interview with Fox News on March 23, U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff discussed negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, expressing his optimism about Russian President Vladimir Putin's commitment to peace.

Witkoff, who brokered the now broken Jan. 15 ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, has become a leading figure in negotiations regarding Russia and Ukraine.

When asked whether he was convinced that Putin was seeking peace, he responded in the affirmative: "I feel that he wants peace," said Witkoff.

Good to see some objective sources like theKyivindependent posted here regularly.
Who else is going to tell us the definitely real stories about the Ghost of Kiev, Snake Island and how they gloriously will recapture Crimea in the summer offensive?

don't forget the one about the dear old babushka who took down a drone with a jar of beets, really inspiring stuff

That was pretty visionary actually.
Soon the old babushkas will be the only ones left to send to the front.

Yep the war propaganda is far stronger in EU. Nonstop since beginning of the invasion.
