US envoys call for European inclusion in Ukraine peace talks following Moscow meeting

Following discussions in Moscow with Russian President Vladimir Putin, US mediators Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff have arrived in Dublin for meetings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The envoys announced that European representatives must be included in future negotiations to end the war, noting that President Putin appears open to European participation.

Despite expressing willingness to include European parties, President Putin reiterated Russia's firm stance on territorial claims during the Moscow talks. He insisted that any settled border must correspond to Russia's official constitutional boundaries, which encompass Crimea and four partially occupied eastern regions of Ukraine. Kushner called on European leaders to designate a negotiator for upcoming multilateral talks as shuttle diplomacy continues.
