US Vice President JD Vance said Russia has made “significant concessions” to Ukraine for the first time in the ongoing conflict, days after President Donald Trump held talks with both Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an attempt to end the war.
“The Russians have made significant concessions to President Trump for the first time in three and a half years of this conflict. They have actually been willing to be flexible on some of their core demands. They have talked about what would be necessary to end the war,” Vance told NBC News.
However, the VP underscored that Russia is not “completely there yet” to end the war, but they are engaging in a diplomatic process in “good faith”.
“We’re trying to negotiate as much as we can with both the Russians and Ukrainians to find a middle ground to stop the killing. I think what the president has been trying to do here is try to engage in very aggressive, very energetic diplomacy because this war is not in anyone’s interests.”
