A White House envoy has said he held productive and constructive talks in Florida with Ukrainian and European representatives to end the nearly four-year war between Russia and Ukraine. In a social media post, Steve Witkoff said the talks aimed at aligning on a shared strategic approach between Ukraine, the United States and Europe.

The talks are part of the Trump administration’s months-long push for peace. Trump has unleashed an extensive diplomatic push to end the war, but his efforts have run into sharply conflicting demands by Moscow and Kyiv. Putin has recently signalled he is digging in on his maximalist demands on Ukraine, as Moscow’s troops inch forward on the battlefield despite huge losses. Witkoff’s assessment comes as negotiations have been proceeding with Russia as well.

A Kremlin envoy said that the talks were pressing on “constructively” in Florida. Dmitriev met with Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. For Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote on social media that diplomatic efforts were moving forward quite quickly, and our team in Florida has been working with the American side.
