US Envoys Deliver Trump and Putin Messages in Kyiv After Failed Moscow Talks

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Kyiv on Sunday to deliver messages from Trump and Putin, following failed Moscow talks where Putin refused to budge on his war aims. The duo traveled by train from Poland after Putin offered a 72-hour ceasefire during their Kyiv stay, though Zelensky noted Russian bombs had hit Kyiv airports. They met with Ukrainian and European security officials, with Witkoff having held three-hour Kremlin talks with Putin. Putin reiterated demands for Ukraine's "denazification" and NATO withdrawal from Eastern Europe, while US officials hinted at new proposals. Witkoff's delegation included a Treasury sanctions official, suggesting economic incentives may be part of Trump's peace push.
