In his speech at the Knesset, Donald Trump commented on Steve Witkoff, his envoy in Russia, highlighting his lack of experience in politics and international relations. Although he knew nothing about Russia, Witkoff managed to talk with Putin for five hours, which surprised Trump. The criticisms against Witkoff were numerous, including from the Ukrainian president and European officials, who called him ignorant. Trump tried to defend him, comparing him to Henry Kissinger, but acknowledged that Witkoff made blunders during the negotiations.
