U.S. President Donald J. Trump has announced that his special envoy, Steve Witkoff, recently held a highly productive meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The update was shared by Trump himself in a Truth Social post, where he called the diplomatic exchange a step forward in efforts to bring an end to the ongoing war. “Great progress was made!” Trump wrote, expressing optimism about the outcome of the meeting.
Following the discussion between Witkoff and Putin, President Trump said he personally updated several European allies. According to him, there was broad agreement on the need to bring the war to a close. “Everyone agrees this war must come to a close, and we will work towards that in the days and weeks to come,” he stated.
Though the post did not specify which conflict was being referenced, it strongly suggests that the Trump administration is actively involved in high-level diplomacy aimed at de-escalation and peace-building.
