Witkoff provides no information about which parties the USA will meet, but says that the American delegation will be led by Foreign Minister Marco Rubio and national security adviser Michael Waltz.
The announcement comes after USA's President Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin agreed in a phone call on Tuesday to "immediately" initiate new negotiations on a ceasefire in the Russian war of aggression.
Putin has not agreed to Trump's proposal for a complete ceasefire, a proposal that Ukraine has already accepted. However, after the conversation, Moscow announced that Putin had agreed to a 30-day pause regarding attacks on energy infrastructure.
