US envoys head to Kyiv after talks with Putin in Moscow
Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are due in Kyiv after meeting Vladimir Putin in Moscow to discuss a US-backed plan for ending the war in Ukraine.
US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are travelling to Kyiv after talks in Moscow with Russian President Vladimir Putin on a proposal aimed at ending the war in Ukraine, according to reports from the meeting. The visit comes as Washington presses ahead with diplomacy on the conflict.
A Kremlin aide described the Moscow discussions as frank and constructive, while the US side said it hoped for similarly productive talks in Ukraine. The proposal under discussion is linked to President Donald Trump’s efforts to secure a settlement.
The Moscow meeting followed a period of renewed diplomatic contact over the war, which began with Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The next round of talks in Kyiv is expected to test whether the two sides can narrow their differences.
