Trump's Envoy Plans Moscow Visit Amid Intensified US-Russia Contacts

Steve Witkoff, U.S. President Donald Trump's special envoy, is set to visit Moscow this week for a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Witkoff, who primarily serves as Trump's Middle East envoy, has reportedly taken on a growing role in diplomatic efforts related to the Ukraine conflict. The visit comes as Russia acknowledges that contacts between the two nations have become more intensive. The discussions are expected to focus on geopolitical issues, including the ongoing war in Ukraine.

This meeting signals a potential shift in U.S.-Russia relations under the Trump administration.
