U.S. President Donald Trump said that his special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are traveling to Moscow and Kyiv with a proposal to end Russia’s war against Ukraine.
Asked whether Witkoff and Kushner would bring new proposals, Trump replied: “They are carrying with them a proposal to end the war.”
The U.S. president said he hoped the diplomatic efforts would be successful, emphasizing that Witkoff and Kushner are “two excellent negotiators.”
“We sent them to see whether there is enough room to accomplish something. There may be a good chance that we can succeed in doing that,” Trump told reporters at the White House.
He reiterated that he believes the personal animosity between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin is one of the obstacles to ending the war.
“There is a personal problem between Russia and Ukraine. You have President Zelenskyy and President Putin. They really hate each other. You know what hate is? There is serious hatred between them, and that stands in the way,” Trump said.
According to him, Russia and Ukraine together lost 32,000 soldiers during the past month alone.
“On average, they lose 25,000 soldiers a month. That has to be resolved,” Trump said.
At the same time, the U.S. president expressed his belief that Putin has no intention of attacking NATO territory.
“I don’t think Putin will do that. I talk to him. I know him very well. Putin has no intention of attacking NATO territory,” Trump said.
