Briefing the Ukrainian side

According to Reuters, representatives of US President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, informed Ukrainian officials that a potential oil deal between Washington and Moscow has the potential to soften Russia's position. The American side believes this would facilitate the resumption of peace negotiations.

Call regarding oil processing infrastructure

In addition, the US urged Ukraine to cease strikes on Russian oil refineries. Washington hopes that such a decision will help persuade Vladimir Putin to make concessions during negotiations.

Position on military support

Meanwhile, as the agency notes, the American side did not threaten to halt military or intelligence support for Ukraine.
