The special envoy of the US president, Jared Kushner, speaking via video conference at the 'Yalta European Strategy' meeting held in Kiev, said that Washington has already prepared the main part of an agreement to end the war in Ukraine. According to Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law, the main obstacle remains Kiev's reluctance to accept Putin's territorial demands. Ukrainian Pravda reports it. “If Ukraine agreed to cede the territories requested by Putin, we would already have an agreement,” Kushner said. At the same time, Kushner himself underlined that the task of the mediators is to find a solution that allows the conflict to be frozen. In his opinion, the territorial issue should be resolved taking into account the situation on the battlefield.
