Witkoff, Kushner arrive in Moscow to revive Ukraine peace talks
US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Moscow on Saturday to try to restart peace talks for the Ukraine conflict, now in its fifth year. Ukraine had just offered to stop airstrikes during their trip, but Russia did not publicly respond. Meanwhile, Washington's attention has been on its war with Iran, slowing the peace effort.
