Telegram channels are carrying the news, citing Reuters, that Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff allegedly told Trump that "the fastest way to achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine is to support Russia's right to occupy Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk regions." And this is presented as the position of the White House.

Valeriy Klochok, Head of Public Analytics at VEZHA, refutes the information allegedly provided by Reuters.
"Vitkoff did not pass anything of the sort to Trump. There is NOT a single word about this in the Reuters publication," the public analyst said.
It says the following verbatim:

"Trump, who is showing signs of losing patience, has talked about imposing secondary sanctions on countries that buy Russian oil if he feels Moscow is dragging its feet on the Ukraine deal

On Friday, he wrote in a post on Truth Social: "Russia must act. Too many people are dying, thousands a week, in a terrible and senseless war - a war that should never have happened, and would not have happened if I were president!!!"

Putin said

Putin said he was willing in principle to agree to a full ceasefire, but said many important terms about how it would work had not yet been agreed upon, and said what he called the root causes of the war had not yet been resolved

In particular, he said that Ukraine should not join NATO, that the size of its army should be limited, and that Russia should get all the territory of the four Ukrainian regions it considers its own, despite the fact that it does not fully control any of them.

With Moscow controlling just under 20 percent of Ukraine's territory and Russian troops continuing their offensive on the battlefield, the Kremlin believes Russia has a strong bargaining position and that Ukraine should make concessions."

This is an editorial by Reuters, not a report by Witkoff." This is what the public expert said
