US Vice President JD Vance said on Sunday that Russia has taken “significant concessions” in peace talks over the Ukraine war and expressed wariness about recent developments.
Speaking on NBC’s ‘Meet the Press with Kristen Welker’, the US Vice President said Russian President Vladimir Putin appears to be softening his stance, particularly regarding Ukraine’s future security.
VP Vance praises Trump’s commitment to ending the war in Ukraine:
