The White House's special envoy has arrived in Moscow. Experts believe that the main topic of his meeting with the Russian president will be the Ukrainian settlement. At the same time, it is known that Washington is studying the possibility of introducing new sanctions against Moscow.
Kremlin officials reported that President Vladimir Putin is holding talks with Steven Witkoff, the special envoy of the President of the United States.
The talks took place in the Kremlin's Representative Office. Before the official part of the meeting, Putin and Witkoff shook hands. The head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, Kirill Dmitriev, and Yuri Ushakov, an aide to the President of Russia, are also participating in the discussion.
Witkoff arrived in the Russian capital this morning. This visit was his fifth to Russia since the beginning of the year. His previous trips took place on April 11 and 25, and he also held meetings with Vladimir Putin earlier.
According to the Financial Times, Donald Trump will be furious if Witkoff fails to bring good news for the United States on the Ukrainian settlement to Washington.
