Putin is meeting Witkoff in Moscow: Interfax
U.S. President Donald Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, has arrived in Moscow, according to Interfax news agency, citing a source. Witkoff is expected to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday [1][2]. This visit comes amid ongoing peace talks and a proposed ceasefire deal between Ukraine and Russia.The meeting in Moscow is part of Trump's efforts to broker a quick ceasefire in Ukraine. Trump has been vocal about his desire to reset the Russian relationship with the U.S. and has previously expressed that Russia and Ukraine can do "big business" with Washington if they reach a deal [3]. However, the talks have been challenging, with Russia and Ukraine accusing each other of violating the 30-hour Easter truce [4].
Witkoff's visit follows a statement by Russian President Putin, who suggested face-to-face talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for the first time since Russia's invasion in February 2022. Zelensky, however, emphasized that actions speak louder than words and that Ukraine is ready for any conversation that would stop strikes on civilians [5].
The visit also coincides with a meeting of representatives from Ukraine, the UK, France, and the US in London on Wednesday to continue talks on a potential ceasefire. The UK's Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, has backed the call for a full ceasefire and thanked New Zealand for its ongoing support in the Coalition of the Willing [6].
The visit of Witkoff to Moscow is a significant development in the ongoing peace talks between Ukraine and Russia. The meeting between Witkoff and Putin could provide a breakthrough in the negotiations, but the outcome remains uncertain.
