Investing.com -- Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed a halt to the invasion of Ukraine as part of a peace deal initiative with U.S. President Donald Trump, as reported by the Financial Times earlier this week. The proposal was made during a meeting with Steve Witkoff, Trump’s special envoy, in St Petersburg earlier this month.
According to sources familiar with the talks, Putin suggested that Moscow could give up its claims to areas of four partly occupied Ukrainian regions that are still under the control of Kyiv. This offer is seen as a significant move in the efforts to reach a peace agreement.
