The article discusses the conversations held by U.S. Special Envoy Steve Wittekov with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Saint Petersburg, aimed at exploring ways to end the war in Ukraine. The discussions covered proposals for a comprehensive peace that includes long-term security guarantees for Kyiv, an economic plan for the post-war period, and a sustainable European security framework. Moscow also expressed interest in restoring economic cooperation with Washington, exporting Russian fertilizers, involving China in the dialogue, and indicated its readiness to assist in resolving conflicts with Iran. As a tangible result of the talks, Wittekov announced Russia’s agreement to release American prisoner Stephen Hoppers, though challenges remain regarding the conditions each side demands. Ukraine and its European allies insist on not ceding territory or compromising security guarantees, while Moscow requires concessions including territorial ones, Donbas, military reductions, and the rejection of NATO membership.
