Budanov denied a Le Monde report about an alleged conflict with Trump's special envoy Witkoff during the negotiations. "The information about the details of the conversation does not correspond to reality, it simply did not happen. We are now witnessing information attacks on the negotiation process. It is important to keep calm and remember our main goal - sustainable peace for Ukraine," said the head of the office of the President of Ukraine. Earlier, Le Monde reported that there was a tense exchange between Witkoff and Budanov: Trump's special envoy allegedly demanded an end to attacks on Russian oil refineries, while Budanov refused to agree.
