Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke Wednesday with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, described as envoys for President Donald Trump, about ways to revive diplomatic efforts tied to Russia’s war against Ukraine, according to a report published Wednesday.
The discussion appears to have centered on how negotiations or other diplomatic channels could be resumed after a long period in which the conflict has remained unresolved. While the available report did not outline detailed proposals or any immediate breakthrough, it pointed to continued interest in pursuing a political path alongside the war.
The involvement of Witkoff and Kushner suggests figures connected to Trump are part of conversations about possible next steps on Ukraine. Their contact with Zelensky underscores how the war remains a major international issue, with diplomacy still seen as an important part of any eventual settlement.
At this stage, only limited details about the exchange have been made public. What is clear from the report is that Zelensky’s talks with the two envoys were focused on renewing efforts to find a diplomatic route toward ending the war.
