- Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, identified as President Trump's envoys, arrived in Kyiv on Sunday for diplomatic talks aimed at resuming negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
- The Kyiv visit came immediately after the two envoys held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, making the back-to-back meetings a single diplomatic sequence.
Why it matters: Sending the same envoys from Putin to Zelensky in a single trip underscores a shuttle-diplomacy approach to restart talks, and the timing — fresh from Moscow — means Kyiv is responding to proposals or positions Putin just put on the table.
