Diplomatic Push to End Russia's War in Ukraine Resumes

After a prolonged lull, diplomatic activity aimed at ending Russia's war in Ukraine has picked up again. US President Donald Trump's special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, traveled to Moscow over the weekend for talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, then went on to Kyiv to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Shortly after both visits, Trump himself spoke with Putin by phone to discuss the outcomes of the meetings. Little has been officially disclosed about the specific proposal being discussed or drafted by the American side to end the war — no detailed information about the substance of the talks has been made public.

Scenarios spread amid the information gap

Against this backdrop of limited official information, various unofficial scenarios describing Ukraine's possible future in far more concrete terms — including the idea of dividing the country's territory — have been spreading rapidly on social media. The rapid circulation of such versions is adding tension and uncertainty among the public at a time when official details about the direction of the talks remain unavailable.

Overall, the situation shows that after months of silence, diplomatic activity on ending the war has resumed on several fronts at once — through direct envoy trips to both capitals and through a high-level phone call between Trump and Putin. No concrete results or agreements on the next steps have been announced so far.
