Talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump\u2019s envoy, Steve Witkoff, were constructive, very useful, and substantive, according to Russian presidential aide Yury Ushakov.
\nHe made the comments after five hours of talks on Tuesday between the Russian president, his envoy Kirill Dmitriev, and Witkoff, which finished after midnight local time.
\n\u201cNo compromises have been found as of yet,\u201d Ushakov said afterward, adding that a meeting between Putin and Trump is not currently planned.
\n\u201cWe discussed the substance, not specific wording and solutions. The parties see enormous potential for cooperation,\u201d Ushakov said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome American proposals are acceptable to Russia… others are not,\u201d he stated, noting that the issue of territory was also discussed.
