Putin is open to peace "under the right conditions", says Kushner.
Speaking to the press during trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi, US special representative Jared Kushner said:
"Most of the Europeans' questions concern whether Russia and Putin are really ready for peace. Based on what Steve and I have heard from Putin, we can say with a high degree of confidence: 'Yes' - provided the right conditions are met. The Russians are asking the same questions of the Ukrainians and the Europeans: are they really ready for peace? ".
The negotiations have been going on for more than four hours. The talks between the delegations are expected to continue on November 11.
