Trump Envoy Suggests One Out-Of-The-Box Way To ‘Reshape Russian-United States Relationship’ And Bring Stability

President Donald Trump’s U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff suggested Monday evening on “Hannity” that there’s a “possibility” for the U.S. and Russia to potentially reshape their relationship through “commercial opportunities.”

Since his campaign, Trump has vowed to bring peace to the wars that escalated under the Biden-Harris administration, including the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Host Sean Hannity asked Witkoff about his recent meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and whether he could “really see a deal emerging” between the U.S. and Russia.

“I think you used a very good word there, Sean, emerging. I do. This is the third meeting I’ve had with him. This last meeting lasted close to five hours,” Witkoff said. “We had two of his key advisers in the room at the time, Ushakov and Kirill Dmitriev, and it was a compelling meeting.”

“Towards the end we actually came up with, I’m gonna say finally, but I don’t mean it in the way that we were waiting,” Witkoff added. “I mean it in the way that it took a while for 🇺🇸US to get to this place —what Putin’s request is to get to have a permanent peace here. So beyond the ceasefire, we got an answer to that.”

Talks between Witkoff and Putin took place Friday in St. Petersburg, following Trump’s call for an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine, according to Reuters.
