Special representatives of US President Donald Trump — Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner — may soon pay a new visit to the Russian Federation. According to information from diplomatic circles and Russian informed sources, the trip could take place within the next two weeks, although exact dates and logistics are still being coordinated.
Background and Diplomatic Backdrop
The first substantive reports about the possible resumption of trips by Washington's key emissaries to Moscow emerged immediately after a telephone conversation between US President Donald Trump and the Russian leadership. Recall that these contacts discussed the contours of a potential settlement and the partial lifting of restrictive measures.
International Consultations in Miami
In parallel with preparations for bilateral contacts, large-scale consultations were held in Miami with the participation of representatives from the US, UK, France, Germany, the European Commission, Ukraine, and NATO. According to Steve Witkoff, the central topic of discussion was practical steps towards de-escalation.
Energy, Grain Corridor, and Security Guarantees
During the multilateral negotiations, the parties paid close attention to preparing infrastructure for winter, maintaining the stability of energy systems, and ensuring the uninterrupted export of grain crops. Security guarantees for Ukraine and post-war economic recovery plans were also discussed.
