Trump envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff are reportedly set to visit Moscow first, then Kyiv, over the weekend of Sept. 5-6. On Thursday, President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed that preliminary dates had been set for a meeting with the US presidential envoys in the coming days, but did not provide exact dates.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. On Friday morning, Russian state news agency TASS, citing a source, initially reported that Witkoff and Kushner intended to visit Kyiv and Moscow in the coming days. It later added: “Witkoff and Kushner will first visit Moscow, then Kyiv on September 5-6, a source told TASS.” During the morning Russian attack on Kyiv, Verkhovna Rada lawmaker Oleksiy Honcharenko reported that a drone had hit a plane at Zhulyany Airport, the second-largest passenger international airport in Kyiv and Ukraine. The airport is located in the Zhulyany district, about 8 kilometers (5 miles) southwest of the city center. “Witkoff and Kushner were supposed to fly to Kyiv on Sunday after visiting Moscow on Saturday. The most interesting thing about this sentence is that they WERE TO ARRIVE in Boryspil by plane. This was at the stage of agreement. The Americans were skeptical, but were close enough to agree,” Honcharenko wrote. According to Honcharenko, given that “the Russians hit the plane in Zhulyany with a drone,” Witkoff and Kushner will most likely arrive in Kyiv on Sunday – meaning they will definitely not get there by plane and will most likely travel by train.
