Trump’s emissary, Steve Witkoff, arrived in Moscow
“Stephen Witkoff was greeted by the special representative of President Kirill Dmitriev,” wrote the Russian state agency, two days before the ultimatum exposed by Donald Trump so that Russia stops his offensive in Ukraine.
A new president in Poland
Conservative historian Karol Nawrocki is to be invested this Wednesday new president of Poland, his declarations presage difficult cohabitation with the pro-European government of Donald Tusk.
During his campaign, he opposed the idea of Ukraine’s membership in NATO and had reproached kyiv for not having “been gratitude for what the Poles did”. With his slogan “Poland first, the Poles first”, he had targeted the million Ukrainian refugees living in the country.
Last Thursday, Karol Nawrocki, however, spoke on the phone with the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, who declared himself “grateful” to have heard “the assurance of continuous support for Ukraine”.
Last chance discussions between Russia and the United States
Donald Trump’s emissary, Steve Witkoff, will be this Wednesday in Moscow, a few days before the expiration of the ultimatum posed by the American president so that Russia stops his offensive in Ukraine.
Steve Witkoff, who is Donald Trump’s henchman for “peace missions”, has already met Vladimir Putin several times, but none of these interviews led the Russian president to change course.
