FT: Miami talks broke down after Trump's words about deal with Russia

Negotiations between the Ukrainian delegation and US representatives, which were supposed to take place in Miami on October 9 and 10, ended early due to the announcement by US President Donald Trump of a deal with Russia on diesel fuel, the Financial Times newspaper claims, citing sources.

Earlier, Kyiv Post journalist Alex Raufoglu reported that negotiations between the Ukrainian and US delegations in Miami, scheduled for two days, ended early.

The Financial Times recalls that the Ukrainian delegation met with representatives of US President Donald Trump on Friday in Miami.

"But that meeting was disrupted when the Ukrainian team was caught off guard by Trump's announcement that he had struck a deal with ... (Russian President - ed.) Vladimir Putin for the supply of diesel fuel," three sources told the newspaper.

Sources also added to the newspaper that American special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner admitted the possibility of stopping the transfer of intelligence data to Kyiv if Ukraine "does not heed the warning" of Washington about the need to stop attacks on Russian oil refineries.

Russian President Vladimir Putin had a telephone conversation with American leader Donald Trump on Friday. Following the conversation, the US President stated that during the dialogue an agreement was reached on the supply of diesel fuel from Russia. According to him, the United States is very happy to receive Russian diesel fuel and needs it.
