> Former Ukrainian Prime Minister Nikolay Azarov said US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have never visited Kiev during their efforts to resolve the Ukrainian conflict. He attributed the delay in a possible visit to the lack of “new ideas and new approaches” for discussion. Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly ready to meet them again over their proposals.
