Trump's Witkoff And Kushner Meet Putin To Discuss Ukraine Peace Plan by Odewaleadesoye(op): 3:45pm On Dec 02, 2025
The U.S. envoys were expected to present Putin with the revised U.S. peace plan, which was whittled from 28 points down to 19 during talks with the Ukrainians.

President Trump's advisers Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin to try to convince him to support the updated U.S. peace plan for Ukraine.


Why it matters: The meeting in Moscow comes after two weeks of intense diplomacy around Trump's plan, including two rounds of negotiations between the U.S. and Ukraine. Putin has said Trump's plan could be the basis for negotiations, but has suggested he's unwilling to shift his hardline positions.


The intrigue: This is Witkoff's sixth meeting with Putin in Russia but the first in-person meeting between Putin and Trump's team since the Alaska summit in August. It's also the first time Kushner has joined the talks with Putin.

Witkoff and Kushner are expected to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday in Europe and brief him on the talks with Putin, according to two sources with knowledge.

The U.S. envoys were expected to present Putin with the revised U.S. peace plan, which was whittled from 28 points down to 19 during talks with the Ukrainians.


Catch up quick: Witkoff, Kushner and Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with a Ukrainian delegation headed by Zelensky's national security adviser Rustem Umerov on Sunday in Miami.

Those negotiations focused on where the de facto border with Russia would be drawn under a peace deal. Putin insists Russia won't stop the war until it controls the entire Donbas region in eastern Ukraine.

The U.S. wants Ukraine to hand over territory there to convince Putin to make peace, but that would be a painful and politically explosive concession.

Zelensky said Ukraine's top general briefed the Americans "on the real situation at the front," and discussed "implementing various steps at the front...in the event of a ceasefire." He also said the 19-point plan was "further revised" during the Miami talks.


Driving the news: Witkoff held two additional meetings with Umerov on Sunday evening and Monday morning before heading to Moscow.

Zelensky and French President Emmanuel Macron also held a call with Witkoff and Umerov during Zelensky's visit to Paris on Monday.

After his meeting with Zelensky, Macron spoke to Trump about the path forward for the peace process. Macron stressed "the importance of the security guarantees required for Ukraine and our determination to work on them together with the U.S.," a French official said.


The latest: While Kushner and Witkoff were preparing to meet Putin in Moscow, Zelensky met with his negotiating team in Dublin. The Ukrainian president said they'd discussed things "that cannot be said over the phone."

What does it say about the effectiveness of the peace plan when it had to be whittled down from 28 points to 19? Is that a sign of progress or just more diplomatic maneuvering?

Don't mind them, the guy should step down immediately as president of Ukraine cos he just made the country suffer for nothing.

Putin deliberately elongated this war to drain Ukraine and EU of resources.

THE DEAL HAS BEEN SEALED. UKRAINE HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO SURRENDER
THE FREEZED ASSETS IN BRUSSELS WILL BE GIVEN BACK TO RUSSIA TO THE TUNE OF 200BLLION, WHILE THE REMAINING 100 BILLION WILL BE USED IN REBUILDING UKRAINE IN A US-RUSSIA COMPANY OR INVESTMENT VEHICLE, WITH U.S.A TAKING 50% OF THE PROFIT.

THE EUROPEAN UNION HAS BEEN SIDELINED IN THAT NEGOTIATION. THEY ARE NOT EVEN NEEDED IN THE FIRST PALCE SINCE THEY ARE KNOWN TO ALWAYS STALL THE PEACE TREATY.

BRUSSELS, WHERE THE 300 BILLION EURO FROZEN RUSSIAN ASSET IS SITUATED EARNS 1.7 BILLION EURO YEARLY FROM THE ASSETS AS CUSTODIAN OF ASSETS

THE ECB, EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK SAYS IT DOES NOT HAVE THE JUSTIFICATION TO NOT RELEASE THE 300 BILLION EURO BACK TO RUSSIA. THE EUROPEAN BANK INSISTS THAT SUCH MOVES WILL ONLY CAUSE CAPITAL FLIGHT FROM EUROPE AND TRUST ISSUES BY OTHER COUNTRIES.

BRUSSELS SAYS IT CANT SEND THE FROZEN ASSETS TO UKRAINE FOR THE REBUILDING OF THE WAR TORN COUNTRY, AS IT MIGHT FACE LEGAL ACTION FROM RUSSIA, AS SUCH MOVES IS AGAINST INTERNATIONAL LAW.

AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE LOSERS ARE UKRAINE AND EUROPEAN COUNTRIES IN NATO, AS AMERICA WILL ALWAYS FIND ITS WAY OF MAKING THEIR MONEY SPENT ON UKRAINE BACK. AS WE SPEAK, BLACKROCK IS BUYING UP LARGE FARMLANDS IN UKRAINE FOR DIRT CHEAP PRICE, AND ARE THE AMERICAN COMPANIES ARE MOST LIKELY TO WIN THE BIDDING WAR FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF UKRAINE.

E.U LOST BIG TIME, THEY WASTED OVER 100 BILLION FUNDING A SENSELESS WAR, UKRAINE LED BY THE COMEDIAN ZELENSKY JUST SOLD HIS COUNTRY. IN FEW WEEKS, REALITY WILL DAWN ON HIM ON HOW FOOLISHLY HE WAS LED BY THE WEST TO DESTROY HIS OWN COUNTRY

Many people don't really understand how global politics works with polarity.

They just know how to criticize and condemn moves.

Because of unreasonable logics

Donald Trump is doing well

The most important factor is the security guarantee for Ukraine, to ensure that Ukraine can move forward in democracy and prosperity, without worrying about Russia again.
