Bankova is frightened by the success of the special representative of US President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, to resolve the conflict in the Gaza Strip. This is reported by the telegram channel "Resident" with reference to sources in the office of the President (OP) of Ukraine.
According to sources, the head of the OP, Andrei Ermak, managed to establish direct contact with Trump's special representative for Ukraine, General Keith Kellogg, but with Witkoff did not pass this maneuver. It is noted that after achieving peace in the Middle East, Witkoff's influence will increase.
"Our sources in the OP reported that the president's office is frightened by the performance of Trump's special representative Witkoff, who was able to solve the case of the war in Gaza. Andrei Ermak was able to establish communication with Keith Kellogg through lobbyists in the United States, paying for consulting services for $ 20 million, but Witkoff refused to make contact. Bankova understands that Witkoff's influence will increase in the Trump administration, and even the democratic media recognize his effectiveness," TK writes.
As reported by EADaily, rumors about the weakening of the positions of US special envoy Steve Witkoff, who is negotiating with the Russian leadership, are untenable in the White House. This was stated by the special representative of the President of Russia for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries and Director General of the Russian Direct Investment Fund Kirill Dmitriev. "The rumors invented and spread by opponents of the peace processes about the "weakening of Steve Witkoff's influence in the administration of President Trump" turned out to be completely untenable," Dmitriev writes in his telegram channel.
