The two-day talks aimed at settling the Ukraine conflict kicked off in Switzerland on Tuesday. The parties had previously held two meetings in a similar format in Abu Dhabi in January.

Witkoff wrote on X on Wednesday that “President Trump’s success in bringing both sides of this war together has brought about meaningful progress.”

Following the first day of discussions, the Russian and Ukrainian teams “agreed to update their respective leaders and continue working towards a deal,” he said.
