Putin says US-Russia contacts beneficial as talks begin with Witkoff and Kushner

The envoys presented settlement ideas and discussed possible economic projects, but no breakthrough was announced after more than three hours of closed-door talks.

  • On Sunday, Sept. 6, President Volodymyr Zelensky hosted US special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Kyiv, defining priorities for a comprehensive "winter package" and resumption of peace negotiations.
  • Following a three-hour meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Saturday, Sept. 5, Witkoff and Kushner are reviving a diplomatic process that had stalled, creating fresh momentum for negotiations.
  • Ukraine requested air defense munitions and a "serious volume" of American LNG to survive winter, while the delegation arrived via the "Peace Express" train to avoid persistent Russian strikes.
  • European officials joined the third round of talks in Kyiv, and the parties agreed to meet in the near future to continue negotiations on establishing a just peace.
  • Zelensky outlined a "prosperity plan" for postwar recovery combining security and economic guarantees, though territorial disputes remain a primary obstacle as Russia continues demanding recognition of its territorial gains.
