Kirill Dmitriev is discussing a Ukraine peace settlement with US President Donald Trump\u2019s confidants<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong>Russian President Vladimir Putin\u2019s special envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, has described talks in Miami with senior US interlocutors as \u201cconstructive,\u201d<\/em> signaling continued momentum in back-channel diplomacy aimed at exploring a potential settlement to the Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n Dmitriev is holding talks with senior US officials, including President Donald Trump\u2019s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, and his son-in-law Jared Kushner, according to sources familiar with the meetings.<\/p>\n The discussions reportedly revolve around a US peace plan that would require Ukraine to relinquish parts of Russia\u2019s Donbass region that it still controls, freeze the front lines in Russia\u2019s Kherson and Zaporozhye Regions, agree to neutrality, and reduce the size of its armed forces. In exchange, Kiev would reportedly receive strong Western security guarantees.<\/p>\n \n Read more<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe discussions are proceeding constructively. We will continue today, and will also continue tomorrow,\u201d<\/em> Dmitriev said in a brief comment to journalists around 5pm local time on Friday, without providing further details.<\/p>\n Earlier on Saturday, Dmitriev publicly criticized what he described as coordinated media attacks timed to undermine the negotiations. In a post on X, he referred to Witkoff as a \u201cgreat peacemaker,\u201d<\/em> arguing that attacks by the \u201cwar lobby and fake media\u201d<\/em> against him intensify as talks draw closer to potential breakthroughs.<\/p>\n The talks come as several European powers push to insert themselves into the US-led diplomatic efforts. After discussions on security guarantees<\/em> for Kiev in Berlin earlier this week, senior officials from Germany, France, and the UK reportedly traveled to Miami for parallel consultations.<\/p>\n \n Read more<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
