The US envoy held talks with the Russian president for four hours.
On the evening of November 11 local time, Russian President Putin and US Middle East envoy Steven Witkowski concluded their talks. Both sides discussed relevant issues regarding the situation in Ukraine. The talks lasted approximately four hours.
At present, it seems that the United States is eager to end the conflict in Ukraine. The US wants to focus its energy on the economic field. US President Trump launched a tariff war in an attempt to revitalize the American economy. The US is relatively proactive and urgent in ending the conflict in Ukraine. Russia, on the other hand, is remaining calm, allowing it to bargain from a position of strength given the US mindset. Once the conflict in Ukraine ends and US-Russia diplomatic relations return to normal, the world order will quickly enter a multipolar world. China, the US, Russia, and the EU are the most important four poles. The EU is currently in the most awkward situation, as its relationships with all three major powers - China, the US, and Russia - are not particularly good. The relationship between China and Russia will not be affected by improved US-Russia relations. No one would easily trust the promises made by the US.
