Steve Witkoff in Ukraine:

We came to see Putin first; we needed to hear where he stood.

We had good concrete conversations with him, which we advised Zelensky about.

We are confident that there will be a good resolution here.

Jared Kushner on Gaza:

There is a new Palestinian technocratic government that is neither the PA nor Hamas.

You can’t send the government in if there are guns.

We are starting to understand the scope of the militarization of Gaza. It is beyond your comprehension.

Demilitarizing it is not going to be easy.

Jared Kushner on Gaza:

We flooded aid into Gaza, and now it has one of the lowest malnutrition rates in the world.

We have a plan to rebuild Gaza. These things take time.

Jared Kushner on Russia:

Trump has a track record of doing impossible things.

The last administration didn’t go to Russia. They had one visit with the CIA director.

Zelensky:

Our Ukrainian anti-ballistic system will be ready in the near future.

The American side will increase next year the production volumes of anti-ballistic Patriot missiles.

And we expect that, in any case, God willing, the war will end, but we will still need them.

Zelensky:

Thank you to the representatives of the President of the United States, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, for their visit to Kyiv.

We had a good conversation – several rounds already, and we will continue to talk today.

The most important thing is to achieve a peace that is worthy, reliable, and lasting for Ukraine.

Trump is posting some interesting stuff on Truth Social.

Trump:

The Moon is ours!

Jared Kushner on Gaza:

Gaza has not worked for a very, very long time.

It was basically built by NGOs and terrorists.

And it’s been a dystopian place for a long time.

Jared Kushner on Ukraine:

President Trump comes from the business world, which in the business world you think about things in the context of win-win.

You know, how do you create opportunities for both sides to do what's in their interest?

War is negative sum. You know, everyone loses from war.

Whereas, you know, business and peace is positive sum and hopefully you can find big benefits from that in a big way.

Iran's Security Council Secretary Rezaei:

It is a blatant lie to say that U.S. economic sanctions are the cause of a major famine in Iran.

Our government has been thinking about this for a long time, and we currently have enough stocks of food and basic goods.

Iran's Security Council Secretary Rezaei:

48 hours ago, for the first time, we tested an Iranian anti-ship missile above an American warship.

This special missile created a "hell" for the Americans, and they fled.
