Speaking in Davos before he heads to Moscow for talks with Vladimir Putin (see our previous post for more on that), Witkoff says a lot of progress had been made and “we’re at the end now”.

He adds: “We are going to get it done.”

Meanwhile, Donald Trump believes Russia and Ukraine are “reasonably close” to a peace deal.

Speaking in Davos on Wednesday, the U.S. president said: “I think I can say that we’re reasonably close. We have to get it stopped… I believe they’re at a point now where they can come together and get ‍a deal done. And if they don’t, they’re stupid.”

He is set to meet Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Davos on Thursday.
