Peskov: Witkoff and Kushner always welcome guests in Moscow

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has indicated that U.S. negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are consistently welcome in Moscow and are considered desirable interlocutors for Russian President Vladimir Putin. However, Peskov clarified that no concrete dates have yet been scheduled for their visit.

Peskov stated that Witkoff and Kushner are in "constant working contact" with their Russian colleagues. He informed reporters that while specific dates for a visit are not yet set, he understood the U.S. negotiators are actively engaged in other areas of American foreign policy.

This development follows earlier remarks by Yuri Ushakov, an aide to the Russian president. Ushakov reported that U.S. President Donald Trump mentioned during a July 4th phone call with Putin that Witkoff and Kushner would be prepared to visit Moscow when the time was suitable. Subsequently, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov indicated that Moscow could swiftly arrange a visit for the U.S. officials once their plans became clearer.

Still, no concrete dates for such a visit have been booked. As far as we know, U.S. negotiators are actively working in other areas of U.S. foreign policy.
