Steve Witkoff waited 8 hours to meet with Putin: Negotiations were held behind closed doors

US President's special envoy Steve Witkoff waited 8 hours to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Sky News reported. Witkoff met with Putin after the Russian president had concluded talks with his Belarusian counterpart, Alexander Lukashenko.
The wait and the meeting itself were described by Russia as a "classic power play." The meeting took place behind closed doors, away from any media coverage, suggesting that it was a private and important meeting. Putin gave Steve Witkoff very important personal time, and the meeting began in the evening, after dark.
Negotiations and the situation in Ukraine
Steve Witkoff arrived in Moscow on March 13, two days after the talks between Ukraine and the United States in Jeddah. His visit included a ceasefire proposal that was also discussed with the Russian side. Kiev agreed to a 30-day ceasefire, and this proposal became the main topic of discussion with the Russian side.
On March 14, Witkoff left Moscow, and the results of the meeting have not yet been made public. Since the negotiations were held behind closed doors, no official information was given about their content or the views expressed by the Russian side.
Putin's comments on the military operations in Ukraine
Putin also stressed that before meeting with Donald Trump's special representative, he had agreed to a cessation of military operations in Ukraine, but that this would have to lead to a long-term peace. These comments, which indicate Russia's recommendations on its conditions and goals, are of great importance for negotiations with America.
Steve Witkoff's visit to Moscow and his meeting with Putin signal a new turn in world politics. The meetings will be held behind closed doors, and their results will serve as an important factor for the overall political situation and the peace process in Ukraine.
