The second day of negotiations ended and the meeting lasted less than two hours. There is a very good chance of finding a solution before the new year," said David Arakhmia, a member of the Ukrainian delegation. Additional statements by the delegations: "Russia will return every centimeter of our country in one way or another: let the Europeans continue to live in their world of illusions," said Vladimir Medinsky, the head of the Russian delegation. "This round of negotiations was one of the most difficult since 2022: the Russians came with very strict instructions, so it was very difficult to soften the discussion," said MP David Arhamia. "It would be wonderful if Zelensky and Putin met," said Jared Kushner, Trump's special envoy.
