US Envoys Resume Ukraine Peace Talks With Moscow and Kyiv Visits

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have resumed mediation efforts to end the Ukraine war, visiting Moscow and planning their first trip to Kyiv on Sunday. The Kremlin called the visit a "useful" and "constructive" meeting, with Putin reiterating Russia's goals. The envoys reportedly carried new proposals, though details were not disclosed. Russia has paused attacks on Kyiv for three days ahead of the visit, while Ukraine reportedly maintains a fire pause. The talks follow previous negotiations that stalled when the envoys focused on Iran. Russia continues strikes elsewhere, including an attack on a Kyiv intelligence center and a drone hit on an oil depot in Sochi. Separately, Norway seized a Russian ship over assets expropriated from Ukraine's Naftogaz on Crimea in 2014.
