US envoy Steve Witkoff said he and Jared Kushner will travel to Russia on Thursday for talks with President Vladimir Putin on the latest proposals for a peace plan to end the war in Ukraine.

“The Russians have invited us to come and that’s a significant statement from them,” Witkoff said in an interview with Bloomberg Television’s Annmarie Hordern at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Wednesday. “Jared and I will leave Thursday night and arrive in Moscow late at night.”
