President Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff<\/a> is meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin<\/a> on Friday.<\/p>\n

It is the third time Witkoff has visited the country and met with Putin since Mr. Trump’s return to the White House.<\/p>\n

Citing Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, Russia’s state-run TASS news agency reported that a “Ukrainian settlement” will be discussed, as well as a potential future meeting between Mr. Trump and Putin.<\/p>\n

However, Peskov is quoted as having cautioned that no breakthroughs are expected to come from the meeting.<\/p>\n

This one comes a day after a dual U.S.-Russian national, Ksenia Karelina<\/a>, who had been sentenced to 12 years in prison in Russia, was exchanged for Arthur Petrov, who was accused of forming a global smuggling spy ring.<\/p>\n

Mr. Trump has been pushing for an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine<\/a> and has previously publicly criticized both Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Putin.<\/p>\n
