US President Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff said negotiations aimed at ending the war are ongoing. According to him, additional progress is expected in the coming weeks.
Witkoff wrote on X that this week Ukraine and Russia carried out another prisoner exchange, with 1,000 individuals returned following agreements reached during recent trilateral negotiations in Geneva involving the United States.
According to him, the exchange became possible thanks to sustained and detailed peace discussions held under the direction of US President Donald Trump.
“Discussions remain ongoing, with additional progress anticipated in the weeks ahead,” Witkoff said.
He also thanked the Swiss government for hosting the talks and Donald Trump for his leadership in advancing diplomacy aimed at reaching a peaceful resolution to the war.
