Putin is expected to be briefed on the outcomes of Sunday's U.S.-Ukraine talks.
U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Tuesday, taking a draft peace plan that Washington hopes can bring about an end to the nearly four-year war in Ukraine.
Ahead of the key meeting, Russia has claimed fresh military victories, hammering home that point that it can succeed in the war without negotiations if it wants.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said that a US plan to end the war in Ukraine could “form the basis for future agreements” but renewed threats to seize more territory by force unless Kyiv withdraws.
