Trump envoys Witkoff and Kushner plan to visit Moscow and Kyiv, in their first trip to Ukraine
The trip would be their first to Kyiv and comes as negotiations remain stalled over territory and NATO, officials said.
- On Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin signaled potential for a peace agreement to end the war, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that negotiators from America will soon visit Moscow and Kyiv.
- After 4-1/2 years of Europe's deadliest conflict since World War Two, President Donald Trump pushed for an end to hostilities, aiming to host a summit with Putin when a peace deal materializes.

- Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who last visited Moscow in January, are expected to facilitate the upcoming meetings, though neither side has provided reasons to expect immediate progress.
