The first round of negotiations between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US presidential envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner has concluded in Kyiv. Zelenskyy’s spokesperson, Serhii Nykyforov, confirmed the end of the talks to European Pravda.

The meeting ended on the evening of September 6. A second, expanded round was due to begin next, bringing in national security advisers from the United Kingdom, France and Germany.

Zelenskyy announced earlier that the talks had begun at about 14:20. He had also said Ukraine prepared to meet Witkoff and Kushner at the airport, but that Russia had effectively prevented the envoys from flying in.

The US representatives had held talks in Moscow the previous day. Yuri Ushakov, an aide to Vladimir Putin, said Putin told them he was confident that Russia’s war objectives would be achieved.

The White House described the discussions as “substantive” and said it would set out the next steps in the coming weeks.
