“At Vnukovo airport, US President Donald Trump’s special envoy Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff were received by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s special representative Kirill Dmitriev,” Russian news agency Interfax reports.

Businessman Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Kushner are now expected to brief Putin on this week’s negotiations between Russian and Ukrainian representatives in Abu Dhabi.

The Americans will then travel to Ireland for talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who arrived in Dublin on Wednesday evening for a summit of the European Political Community (EPC). Zelenskyy said at the time that he hoped Witkoff and Kushner would bring back “in-depth details” from their visit to Russia.
