President Volodymyr Zelenskiy offered to drop Ukraine's aspirations to join the NATO military alliance as he held five hours of talks with U.S. envoys in Berlin on Sunday to end the war with Russia, with negotiations set to continue on Monday.
Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff said "a lot of progress was made" as he and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner met Zelenskiy in the latest push to end Europe's bloodiest conflict since World War Two, though full details were not divulged.
