US officials plan to travel to Norway, Russia for Ukraine talks, sources say
The talks aim to advance a peace proposal and keep Europe involved as U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff prepares for follow-up discussions with Russia.
- On Tuesday, October 20, 2026, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Oslo for peace negotiations with U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and European leaders to develop a framework for ending the war.
- Norway and Finland organized the gathering at Zelensky's request, hosting representatives from the E4 group, the EU, and NATO, while Jared Kushner participated remotely due to illness.
- Zelensky alleged the Pentagon delayed Patriot missile deliveries and restricted Starshield satellite services, which U.S. officials denied, claiming "there has not been some deliberate political directive to go out and harm Ukraine."
- Following the Oslo summit, Witkoff plans to travel to Russia to present peace proposals to President Vladimir Putin and discuss the potential release of detained American citizen Stephen Hubbard.
- These negotiations occur amid mounting tensions between Washington and Kyiv, exacerbated by President Donald Trump's public criticism of Zelensky and his recent diesel-supply deal with Russia.
