🌍 Witkoff and Kushner Are in Moscow This Weekend — Kyiv Is Sunday

Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are back on a plane the Iran war grounded.

TASS said Trump’s envoys — the real-estate partner and the son-in-law — would be in Moscow on September 5 and 6. Volodymyr Zelenskyy said they will make their first visit to Kyiv on Sunday. President Trump told reporters Friday they are bringing a proposal “to end the war.” He would not say whether it asks Ukraine to cede land. “We have an idea for peace.”

Their last Moscow trip was January. Talks went quiet after the U.S. and Israel opened the Iran war in March.

The weekend is not a ceasefire

Friday, a Russian drone hit the SBU security-service headquarters in central Kyiv. Mayor Vitali Klitschko said 12 people were hurt, seven of them medical staff, in the Shevchenkivskyi district. Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha called it a “major escalation” during a renewed push for peace.

Odesa took a “massive” overnight attack: one dead, at least five hurt, including a child. Two police officers were killed in Dnipro. Ukraine hit Sochi and Sirius with drones.

Zelenskyy said Ukraine would not strike during the envoys’ Moscow stay and asked Russia to do the same when they reach Kyiv. “We’ll see what proposals Steve and Jared have and what Moscow will say.”

Vladimir Putin, at a Far East forum Thursday, had said negotiations were frozen, then: “Is there a chance? In my view, yes.” Aide Yury Ushakov after January still said no long-term deal without the “territorial issue.”

What this means for you

A peace headline does not move Hormuz by itself. It can move the risk that Washington is fighting two wars with one attention span. Watch whether Sunday in Kyiv happens, and whether the SBU strike was the greeting or the veto.

Bottom line: the envoys are in Moscow. The SBU is in rubble. An “idea for peace” that will not discuss land is a press conference, not a map.
