Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have canceled their planned trip to Kyiv because of “heavy russian air strikes on the city.”
and have traveled to eight times for meetings with Putin.
But when it comes to visiting , russian air strikes suddenly make the trip too dangerous.
Meanwhile, presidents and prime ministers from a dozen European countries have visited Kyiv over the past several days — despite those very same russian attacks.
This tells you something important about American diplomacy under Trump.
For months, we have been told that Witkoff and Kushner are trying to broker peace between russia and . Yet the people supposedly acting as intermediaries repeatedly travel to Moscow, meet with Putin, listen to russia’s demands - and cannot even bring themselves to travel to the capital of the country russia is invading.
You cannot understand this war by visiting Moscow eight times and Kyiv zero times.
