nrk.no (Swedish) —

US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Thursday to discuss ending the Ukraine war, with talks beginning around 1:00 PM Norwegian time after a delayed arrival at the Kremlin. The envoys are following up on points from Abu Dhabi negotiations between Russia, Ukraine, and the US, with Witkoff hoping to announce a date for new talks and pushing for European participation in future negotiations, though Putin continues to oppose a European security force in Ukraine. After the meeting, Kushner and Witkoff will fly to Dublin for a European Political Community summit with 50 leaders, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, while Russian strikes on nine Ukrainian regions and Ukrainian drone attacks on Russia continue.
