Trump envoys arrive in Kyiv in new push to end Russia’s war
The visit follows the U.S. officials' more than three hours of talks in Moscow on Saturday that a Kremlin aide called "highly useful."
U.S. diplomats Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have arrived in Kyiv for the first time, marking a new push to end Russia's ongoing four-and-a-half year invasion of Ukraine. Despite skepticism about Washington's renewed peace efforts, these hand-picked negotiators were warmly welcomed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the iconic St. Sophia's Cathedral.
Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to Trump for facilitating their arrival and emphasized the potential for extensive discussions during their visit. The talks will also involve officials from the U.K., Germany, and France, according to the Ukrainian leader.
