Trump envoys Witkoff and Kushner to visit Moscow and Kyiv this weekend

President Trump's special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, will travel to Moscow and Kyiv this weekend for talks on ending the war, according to Axios. The envoys will begin their trip on Friday, meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin on Saturday, September 5. They will then meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on Sunday, September 6, marking their first visit to Kyiv since Trump began his second term. The trip follows a White House meeting between Witkoff, Kushner, and Trump to discuss the visit. Ukrainian officials have been negotiating the envoys' visit for months, with previous dates canceled. Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha expects new momentum in peace efforts, noting that ending the war without US participation is unrealistic.
