Russia and the United States will continue negotiations over the Ukraine conflict "in the most active mode," Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said Friday following high-level talks in Moscow.

The remark came after a three-hour meeting at the Kremlin between President Vladimir Putin and US Special Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff, during which both parties discussed the possibility of including Ukraine in direct negotiations with Moscow.

"As for the Ukrainian crisis itself, it was discussed, in particular, about the possibility of resuming direct negotiations between representatives of the Russian Federation and Ukraine," Ushakov told journalists, adding that the talks helped bring the US and Russia closer on Ukraine and other global issues.
