- Yuri Ushakov, Mr Putin's top foreign policy aide, said that "compromises have not yet been found" and that "there is still a lot of work to be done".
- Mr Ushakov also mentioned that Mr Putin reacted negatively to some of the US proposals during the discussions.
- Despite the lack of a breakthrough, Mr Ushakov described the talks as constructive, though no meeting between Mr Putin and Mr Trump is currently scheduled.
