Putin and Kushner
five hours of talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, to discuss a proposed plan to end the war in Ukraine. No peace deal was reached during the meeting. Jared Kushner, currently serving as an adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump, and Steve Witkoff, the U.S. Special Envoy, held
Key Details of the Meeting
Duration and Location: The discussions lasted nearly five hours and took place in the Kremlin.
Outcome: A top Kremlin aide, Yuri Ushakov, stated the talks were “very useful, constructive,” but no specific compromises, particularly on territorial issues, were agreed upon. He emphasized that “much work to be done” on a ceasefire plan.
Proposals: The U.S. delegation presented a draft peace plan in four documents, including a 27-point document. Putin reacted negatively to a number of the U.S. proposals, finding some European counter-proposals “absolutely unacceptable”.
Context: The meeting occurred amidst ongoing heavy fighting in Ukraine and a push by President Trump’s administration to end the nearly four-year-old conflict. Ahead of the meeting, the U.S. officials also held talks with Ukrainian officials in Florida.
Background
This recent meeting is the latest in a series of interactions involving Kushner and Russian officials over the years:
2017 Meetings: During the first Trump administration, Kushner met with Sergey Gorkov, the head of Vnesheconombank (VEB), a Russian state-owned development bank with close ties to Putin. The nature and purpose of this meeting became a point of controversy and was investigated by U.S. authorities as part of a larger inquiry into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Current Role: In the current administration (set in 2025), Kushner has returned as a key figure in Trump’s unconventional diplomatic efforts, focusing on international conflicts and leveraging a tight circle of allies and business associates for negotiations.
