💨 Abstract

The Kremlin stated that contacts with Trump's team are progressing well, but emphasized that significant damage has been done to relations under Biden, making instant results unlikely. Trump desires to end the three-year war in Ukraine, casting it as a proxy conflict between the US and Russia. Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, held talks with Putin, with both leaders expressing optimism but acknowledging the need for further work and time.
