Kyril Dmitriev, Russia’s special presidential envoy, meets with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner as they arrive in Moscow on Saturday.

Two sources familiar with the trip told Reuters that Dmitriev had attended all previous meetings between U.S. envoys and Vladimir Putin and also played a role in talks over exemptions from sanctions on Russian oil.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said Washington has a new specific proposal to end the war, but did not provide details.

The Kremlin on Friday said Putin’s position is “unwavering”; Ukraine must cede all the territory of the four provinces claimed by Russia and abandon its plan to join NATO.
