US envoys Witkoff, Kushner to take part in Ukraine talks in Oslo
Ukraine has asked US special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to join diplomatic efforts in Oslo to end the war with Russia.
U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are scheduled to participate in talks with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky and leaders of Norway and Finland in Oslo on Tuesday, according to Norway's government. Witkoff, who will attend the meetings in person, was invited by Ukraine, as was Kushner. Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store expressed satisfaction at their involvement.
Store and Finnish President Alexander Stubb will join the discussions. Prior diplomatic efforts have been conducted in various nations, and Norway and Finland are eager to continue this work. Their goal is to establish a more productive diplomatic trajectory, according to Store. During his Oslo visit, Zelensky plans to meet Norway's king and tour the parliament.
Axios had reported earlier, citing an unnamed U.S. official, that Witkoff intends to visit Russia during his Oslo trip, aiming to meet with President Vladimir Putin and present proposals. The White House has not yet confirmed this information.
