Russian missiles and drones hit Ukraine while diplomatic efforts were underway to find a way out of the war. The Ukrainian president considered that the Russian attacks on Kiev and Boryspil international airports were a reaction to the possible visit of American negotiators to the Ukrainian capital.
The conversations between Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff and Vladimir Putin ended without signs of changes in Moscow's demands. The American negotiators failed to achieve significant progress in negotiations with the Russian leader.
The military situation on the ground remains tense, with Russian attacks continuing despite ongoing diplomatic efforts. The potential visit of American negotiators to Kiev would have provoked an immediate response from Russia.
