The US administration is considering the process of softening anti-Russian sanctions following an agreement for peaceful settlement in Ukraine, as stated by Steven Witkoff, the special envoy of the US President.
President Trump did not specifically discuss sanctions in the recent telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin, highlighting the potential for a dialogue on easing sanctions.
Efforts are focused on achieving a ceasefire in Ukraine, with Witkoff emphasizing that once achieved, details such as sanction relief and a comprehensive peace treaty will follow.
Engagement between the US and Russia has intensified, with multiple high-level meetings directed by President Trump, showing promising progress towards resolving conflicts and establishing peace.
