Kushner and Witkoff to Meet Putin and Zelenskyy

US presidential envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff will meet again with the presidents of Ukraine and Russia following the talks in Abu Dhabi. Jared Kushner made the announcement.

“Steve and I are going to travel to Moscow tomorrow to meet with President Putin, to go over what was discussed today, and try to make more progress on some of the issues that we discussed, because we see some openings and some opportunities there. After that, we’re gonna fly to Dublin, and we’ll be with President Zelensky to debrief with him and further explore some of the ideas that we came up with here today. A little bit more of a background analysis,” he said.

He added that he would welcome a face-to-face meeting between Zelenskyy and Putin, but said the Russian side wanted to make further progress before such a meeting could take place.

Kushner said one of the aims of his meeting in Moscow would be to discuss involving European countries in the negotiations to make them multilateral.

He described the territorial issue as one of the most difficult matters under discussion. However, he said he was confident that a comprehensive settlement could be achieved by addressing other outstanding issues.

Kushner also confirmed that an agreement had been reached on a prisoner exchange. The number of people to be exchanged is expected to be agreed tomorrow..
