US envoys to visit Russia and Ukraine this weekend, Kremlin says

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are reportedly set to visit Russia and Ukraine this weekend for peace talks, according to Russian state news agency TASS, though the Kremlin declined to confirm the trip. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said any contacts would be announced when they occur, while a source said Russia is trying to alter the envoys' plans to visit Kyiv. The two sides remain far apart on terms, with Russia demanding territorial concessions and Ukraine refusing to surrender land. The envoys last met with President Vladimir Putin in January, and President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday that US representatives were expected in both capitals soon. Peskov noted a settlement remains possible but lacks a necessary basis currently.
