Trump envoys to visit Moscow and Kyiv with new peace proposal

cbsnews.com

President Trump's envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will travel to Moscow and Kyiv this weekend with a new proposal to end the war in Ukraine, marking their first trip to Kyiv since Trump returned to office. Trump announced the mission on Friday, saying the envoys are "great negotiators" and that "there may be a good chance" for a deal. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy confirmed a Sunday visit and pledged not to strike Russia during their stay, emphasizing the need for "real options" to end the war. The trip follows a December 2025 meeting between the envoys and Putin that yielded no breakthrough, and peace efforts stalled after a U.S. attack on Iran in February. A Russian drone struck Ukraine's SBU headquarters in Kyiv just hours before Trump's announcement.
