US President Donald Trump’s special envoy Jared Kushner has said Washington is preparing for the next round of trilateral talks involving Russia and Ukraine, with discussions also underway to bring European partners directly into the peace process. Kushner said several new ideas had emerged from recent consultations and were being examined as possible ways to narrow differences between the sides.

In a post on X, Kushner said he and US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff had remained in contact with Russian, Ukrainian and European representatives following their meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

He said the immediate focus was on arranging direct engagement between Moscow and European partners and setting the agenda for the next round of negotiations.

Kushner indicated that the proposals under discussion could have different outcomes, with some potentially leading to breakthroughs and others developing into fresh proposals. He did not disclose details of the ideas or say whether Russia and Ukraine had agreed to any of them.

Kushner said a lasting settlement would require credible security guarantees for Ukraine and detailed arrangements to reduce the risk of another conflict.

He also described NATO as an important part of European security, while calling for stronger military communication, deconfliction and mechanisms to prevent disputes from escalating.

He said the Trump administration wanted European partners to be directly involved in these discussions. Kushner also stressed that any final agreement would need the approval of the relevant parties.

Addressing reports about the positions taken by Moscow and Kyiv, Kushner said public accounts had highlighted maximalist demands and strong political statements. However, he offered a different picture of the private discussions.
