U.S. presidential envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev in New York, CNN reported, citing sources on Sept. 25.
On September 25, U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev in New York, according to CNN. The meeting, reported by the news outlet, centered on potential cooperation between Russia and the United States, alongside efforts to achieve a peaceful resolution to Russia's conflict in Ukraine. Sources indicated that Dmitriev's arrival in New York was part of ongoing initiatives for a peace settlement and U.S.-Russia dialogue, following a prior meeting between Vladimir Putin and Witkoff and Kushner in September.
Earlier on September 23, The Guardian, based on information from Reuters, revealed that Dmitriev was set to travel to the U.S. to engage with representatives of President Donald Trump's administration, including Witkoff, Kushner, and others. The following day, on September 24, ZN.UA, citing an unnamed diplomatic source, suggested that a trilateral meeting involving Ukraine, Russia, and the United States might occur in the United States on that day.
The meeting was anticipated to include Ukraine's Presidential Office head Kyrylo Budanov and Foreign Intelligence Service chief Rustem Umerov, alongside the U.S. representatives, Witkoff and Kushner, and Russia's Kirill Dmitriev. However, the Ukrainian Presidential Office did not verify the report, with Presidential adviser Dmytro Lytvyn stating that the Ukrainian delegation had already departed.
