Putin Offers Ukraine Peace Talks in Belarus Amidst Skepticism
Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated that Belarus, specifically its capital Minsk, could once again serve as a venue for potential peace talks between Russia and Ukraine. Putin referenced Minsk’s history as a location for past negotiations, including the 2014 Minsk agreements. He also indicated expectations for US representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to visit Moscow for further discussions on ending the conflict, building upon understandings reached during a prior meeting in Anchorage, although no formal agreements were made there.
