Trump Envoys Push for Ukraine Peace | Salt Lake City News

Trump’s envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner returned from high-stakes talks in Kyiv and Moscow, marking the first diplomatic mission to Ukraine since Trump’s re-election — four years after Russia’s invasion. Kushner signaled a broader vision: not just stopping the fighting, but crafting a lasting peace. Witkoff praised Ukrainian officials as open and encouraging, though both sides must compromise. President Zelenskyy reiterated demands for security guarantees and fair territorial terms, while stressing urgent needs for air defense as winter looms. Talks in Moscow were described as constructive by Russian officials, with U.S. proposals floated for settlement. A temporary pause in strikes during the visit hinted at progress, following earlier prisoner swaps seen as proof diplomacy can work — now the real test is whether these efforts can bridge the deep divides between Kyiv and Moscow.
