A Ukrainian official asked during the recent negotiations in Miami what Ukraine would get in return for the US lifting sanctions against Russian oil, to which the US delegation with the US responded that it had already done a lot for Ukraine to end the need for trade attacks. The meeting in Miami lasted six hours, with US special envoy Witkoff leaving midway to join a conversation between US President Trump and Russian President Putin. Björn Seibert, one of the top EU officials at the Miami meeting, informed other EU officials that one of the biggest takeaways from the meeting was that the US is communicating more with Russia than they publicly acknowledge.
