Back to the Kremlin: Will Witkoff Plan Seal Ukraine's Fate?
Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner return to the Kremlin to advance a Moscow-drafted peace plan amid ongoing conflict shifts favoring Russia, raising concerns among Ukraine and allies.
- On 02/12/2025, Steve Witkoff returned to the Kremlin flanked by Jared Kushner and an interpreter following a week of frantic efforts to dial back a peace plan allegedly made in Moscow.
- A Moscow-origin peace plan leaked last week forced frantic damage control from Kyiv and European allies, as the initial draft demanded Kyiv drop NATO ambitions and surrender eastern Donbas territory.
- Negotiators reviewed a 19-point Geneva proposal while debating the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, and U.S. and Russian delegations met in Abu Dhabi after Geneva, where Vladimir Putin said on Nov. 27 Trump's proposals could form a basis for agreement.
- The Hallandale Beach meeting represented a last effort to shape proposals before Russian talks, with much depending on Vladimir Putin's response and follow-up meetings to decide next steps.
- Questions about the envoy's novice status and alleged coaching role have complicated diplomacy, as leaks suggested he may be 'Putin's puppet', according to which French newspaper Libération suggested.
