US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner said Wednesday he and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff would travel to Moscow tomorrow after US-Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Abu Dhabi ended without a clear breakthrough.
“Steve and I are going to travel to Moscow tomorrow to meet with (Russian) President Putin to go over what was discussed today and to try to make more progress on some of the issues that we discussed because we see some openings and some opportunities there,” Kushner said at a news conference in the UAE capital.
Kushner said that he and Witkoff would try to finalize humanitarian relief and prisoner releases, as well as push to bring European countries into the talks – a multilateral format that Moscow has so far resisted.
The president’s son in law – who acts as one of the country’s top diplomats despite holding no official role within the Trump administration – said he and Witkoff would then travel to Dublin to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and discuss peace proposals from the Abu Dhabi talks.
“We’re going to be with President Zelensky to debrief with him and further explore some of the ideas that we that we came up with here today,” Kushner continued.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
