Vance takes another 100 days to push Ukraine and Russia closer

He made the remarks in an interview with Fox News, according to European Pravda.

Asked to comment on the state of negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, Vance said, "the first and necessary step of getting the Russia-Ukraine conflict solved is to get each of them to make a peace proposal."

Also, Vance  mentioned: "And that's actually happened. The Ukrainians have said, ‘This is what we want.’ The Russians have said, ‘This is what we want,’ and now the work of diplomacy is to try to sort of bring these two sides closer together. 

He added that peace proposals have already been presented, and over the next 100 days of Trump’s presidency, his administration “will work very hard to try to bring the sides

"There's a very big gulf between what the Russians want and what the Ukrainians want." 

"We've got the peace proposal out there and issued, and we're going to work very hard over the next 100 days to try to bring these guys together," he added. 

• U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance said that negotiations between the United States, Ukraine, and Russia are in full swing, noting that sometimes it is necessary to “offer rewards” and other times “punishments.”
