U.S. President Donald Trump says his advisers believe Vladimir Putin wants to end the war in Ukraine.

“He would like to end the war--that was their impression," Trump said of special envoy Steve Witkoff and adviser Jared Kushner. "Their impression was very strongly that he’d like to make a deal.”

Trump's comments came a day after Witkoff and Kushner, who is also the president's son-in-law, met for more than five hours with Putin in Moscow for talks aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war.

Witkoff and Kushner are set to meet with Ukraine's lead negotiator, Rustem Umerov, on Thursday in Miami for further Russia-Ukraine peace talks, according to a senior Trump administration official who was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

The talks come as Trump on Wednesday said Witkoff and Kushner came away from their marathon session with Vladimir Putin this week confident that the Russian leader wants to find an end to the conflict.

Zelenskyy hinted at the possibility of further talks with U.S. officials during his nightly address on Wednesday.
