Witkoff arrived in Moscow on Wednesday as President Donald Trump's deadline for Russia to agree a ceasefire in Ukraine looms.
The US president has said Russia could face hefty sanctions or see secondary sanctions imposed against all those who trade with it if it doesn't take steps to end the "horrible war" with Ukraine.
More EMPTY words from Trump. Trump will do precisely NOTHING! Remember when Trump said that he was going to stop the Russo-Ukrainian War within 24 hours? And what became of that promise? Precisely NOTHING! And so it will be with this promise. It's all just hot air. — © Mark Alexander
