Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed on Monday that Moscow had yet to receive any information regarding the outcome of recent talks in Florida between U.S. and Ukrainian officials, leaving the next steps in the peace negotiations unclear.
"For the moment, we don't know the outcome of talks between the Ukrainians and the Americans in Florida," Peskov told state television, as quoted by the RIA news agency. He added that once Moscow receives word, it will be clear how to proceed with their next actions in the ongoing conflict.
The meetings in Florida, which took place until Saturday, followed high-level discussions in the Kremlin between Russian President Vladimir Putin, U.S. President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff, and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. The talks centered around a U.S.-backed plan to end the ongoing war in Ukraine, now in its fourth year.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, speaking on Monday, described the Florida talks as "constructive, although not easy." He confirmed that Ukraine would present a revised peace plan to the U.S. on Tuesday after holding discussions in London with the leaders of France, Germany, and Britain. Zelenskyy emphasized that these ongoing talks are crucial in shaping the path to a possible settlement.
The international community continues to closely monitor the evolving situation, with hopes that diplomatic efforts will lead to a peaceful resolution of the crisis.
