President Donald Trump's special envoy to Ukraine appeared to suggest that the country could be divided like Berlin after World War II, as another of his envoys held long talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Urged by Trump on Truth Social to “get moving” on a ceasefire to end the “terrible and senseless war,” Putin spoke for four hours with Steve Witkoff, the U.S. special envoy leading talks with the Kremlin, in the the Russian city of St. Petersburg on Friday.
Neither Moscow or Witkoff, who later flew to Oman for talks with Iran, commented on what was said at the meeting, which did not include representatives from Ukraine, despite President Volodymyr Zelenskky repeatedly insisting that his country should be involved in the talks.
Zelenskyy, who has firmly rejected any territorial concessions to Russia, will likely have been disappointed to read comments from Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine, retired Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, who told The Times of London that Ukraine could “look like what happened with Berlin” after World War II.
He said British and French troops could serve as a “reassurance force” west of the Dnieper River which bisects parts of the north and east of Ukraine before flowing out into the Black Sea in the South.

Putin knows, I am 100% sure, that no politician in Ukraine can sign this deal or be prosecuted later for treason
