Moscow welcomes the presence of Steve Whitcoff.
Got the Scoop: Steve Witkoff, a close confidant of former President Donald Trump, has touched down in Moscow aboard a luxury Bombardier Global 7500. The private jet arrived at Vnukovo Airport around 10:30 AM local time, hinting at Witkoff's latest high-stakes mission. Interfax confirms that Witkoff, now regarded as the U.S. special envoy, has set foot on Russian soil. Footage from TASS shows a motorcade departing Vnukovo and heading towards the heart of Moscow.
This marks Witkoff's fourth visit to Russia. His last jaunt in April ended with a lengthy face-off with Russian President Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg, a meeting that lasted over four hours. Topics covered were centered around negotiations surrounding Ukraine's settlement. Dmitry Peskov, Putin's press secretary, considered these meetings highly valuable and productive.
On April 24, Yuri Ushakov, Putin's assistant, announced Witkoff's intention to visit Russia this week. The White House subsequently confirmed Witkoff's plans for another meeting with Putin. However, the Kremlin has yet to disclose official details about the impending encounter.
