Witkoff arrives in Moscow
US President Donald Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff has arrived in Moscow, where he is expected to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin. Witkoff has emerged as Washington’s key interlocutor with Putin as Trump pushes for a deal to end the war in Ukraine, and has already held three long meetings with the Kremlin leader. His latest visit to Moscow comes a day after Trump criticised a Russian missile and drone attack on Kyiv that killed at least 12 people, and posted on social media: “Vladimir, STOP!”
