The United States intends to receive Putin's "blessing" to include Europe in the negotiations on Ukraine. Politico.
On Thursday, US officials will personally travel to Moscow to ask Russian President Vladimir Putin to give his "blessing" to European participation in future peace talks on Ukraine.
"We need the Europeans to be at the table," Kushner said in response to a question from Politico. "We have repeatedly communicated directly to President Putin and his team that the only way to achieve this is to have their support, and I think they are open to that." He added: "I believe that Steve and I will do well tomorrow in Moscow, and President Putin will give his blessing. I think that if he agrees, we can make much more progress on important issues."
Kushner also announced that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to what was likely the largest prisoner exchange since the start of the war.
According to him, the exact figures will be confirmed on Thursday.
Kushner called the two-day talks in Abu Dhabi "substantial" and "intense".
