  "summary": "US President Donald Trump's envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, are visiting Moscow and Kyiv with a new plan to end the war in Ukraine. According to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the pair will visit Ukraine on September 6, after visiting Russia on September 5. Zelenskyy has vowed not to strike Russia during their visit to ensure the \"normal functioning of Russian airspace\".\n\nThe Institute for the Study of War has noted that Russia is unwilling to guarantee the safety of the US delegation visiting Kyiv, indicating Moscow's unwillingness to recognize the US as a mediator in peace talks. Russia's stance suggests it is seeking to force Washington to negotiate only with Russia.\n\nPresident Trump has expressed optimism about the trip, stating that Witkoff and Kushner are \"two great negotiators\" who have done a great job in the past. He said there may be a good chance of achieving something through their visit. Zelenskyy has also expressed hope for a constructive and substantive dialogue with the US envoys, saying Ukraine needs to look for real options to end the war.",
