Russia
VS
US envoys
Russia is represented by President Vladimir Putin, the head of state who has overseen the country's military actions in Ukraine since 2022.
The US envoys are Steve Witkoff, President Donald Trump's special envoy, and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, who have been dispatched to negotiate a resolution to the conflict.
The two sides have conflicting interests: Russia seeks to maintain its territorial gains and security guarantees, while the US aims to end the war in Ukraine on terms favorable to Kyiv and its allies.
The envoys are proposing a plan to end the conflict, which they are presenting to Putin in Moscow and, for the first time, to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv.
The stakes are high, as the meeting occurs amid ongoing hostilities, with Zelenskyy urging a halt to air strikes.
The Kremlin described the talks as useful, but Putin noted that the current situation "is not so easy," indicating the challenges ahead in reaching a negotiated settlement.
