US envoy confident trilateral talks will yield resolution to Ukraine war

Special envoy Steve Witkoff told reporters on Sunday that the United States is confident the trilateral negotiations underway will lead to a “good resolution” of the war in Ukraine. The statement followed his and President Trump’s son‑in‑law, Jared Kushner,’s first trip to Kyiv, where they met with Ukrainian officials to discuss a diplomatic pathway to end Russia’s multi‑year conflict.

The Kyiv meetings were part of a broader diplomatic effort involving the United States and its partners, aimed at securing a cease‑fire and a political settlement. U.S. officials emphasized that the talks are intended to address security guarantees, reconstruction needs, and the withdrawal of Russian forces, while both Witkoff and Kushner reiterated Washington’s commitment to supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty. The delegation’s visit underscores the administration’s push to accelerate negotiations as the war continues to impact regional stability.
