US envoy Steve Witkoff said that Russian President Putin has agreed to allow European representatives to attend the next round of talks to end the war in Ukraine. Sky News reports.
"The Europeans will participate in the next meeting because they are our partners and it is essential for us that they take part," Witkoff told Russian state television, as reported by Tass.
Witkoff, along with fellow US envoy Jared Kushner, held talks with the Russian president after the roundtable talks in Abu Dhabi on the Russia-Ukraine conflict. During the meeting with Putin, an agreement was reached to begin preparations for a new humanitarian operation in the conflict zone. "It was agreed," said Russian presidential advisor Yuri Ushakov, "to initiate specific contacts with US representatives regarding this new humanitarian operation, as well as to immediately begin demining operations in the Kostyantynivka area."
