U.S. President Donald Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, has arrived in Moscow. Russian media reported his visit on Wednesday, just days before the White House's deadline for Russia to reach a peace deal with Ukraine.

The visit is Witkoff's fifth to Moscow since Trump took office, with the special envoy at the forefront of White House efforts to end Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022.

U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff arrived in Moscow on Wednesday on a last-minute mission to seek a breakthrough in the Ukraine war, two days before the expiry of a deadline set by President Donald Trump for Russia to agree to peace or face new sanctions.
