Washington — President Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff are meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Tuesday, a White House source confirmed, as Mr. Trump presses for an end to the fighting in Ukraine.

The meeting comes after U.S. and Ukrainian officials held talks in Florida over the weekend. Witkoff has met with Putin before, as he has turned his focus toward Ukraine after he and Kushner helped broker the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. .......................

"They're making concessions," Mr. Trump told reporters of the Russians. "They're big concessions. They stop fighting, and they don't take any more land."

Those two things aren't going to be seen as concessions to European leaders, who believe Russia should give back Ukrainian territory it has occupied. Ukraine has also pushed for security guarantees as part of any deal to end the war, though Russia has rejected the idea of Ukraine joining NATO, which would obligate the U.S. and other member states to come to its defense........................

So what is the - last time I checked - unelected & currently not part of the US government - son in law of Trump, Jared Kushner, doing in Moscow, giving away the territory of a sovereign nation (Ukraine) to Moscow? Did I miss something whilst I was doing my xmas shopping?

1. Russia withdraws forces, surrenders Ukranian territory, International observers, Russian funds contribute to rebuilding

That's the only acceptable endpoint. Otherwise EU contributes more and Ukraine drives out more Russians and destroys more Russian economic and logistics infrastructure.

2. Disgusting, just disgusting. nt

[walkingman]

3. Never forget that roughly half of American voters elected this administration. It is embarrassingly shameful.

[Deuxcents]

4. Why is Kushner in on negotiating?

[Rhiannon12866]

8. That's been my question since we first heard he was involved, what position does he hold in this administration??

And did he legitimately pass security this time around??

[PSPS]

13. He's the bagman for trump's real estate ventures

[Deuxcents]

14. And there you have it..talking heads on tv today said more business was being discussed than peace talks

[Bread and Circuses]

5. Why is Kushner acting as Secretary of State? AGAIN

Jared is lining his pockets with bribes from Saudi, Israel, Russia, and anywhere else.

Trump crime syndicate are crooks

[SergeStorms]

6. Bingo!

Jared is feathering his (and Daddy-in-law's) nest with dirty Russian money. There's no other explanation for his presence.

[Rhiannon12866]

9. Exactly! Last time around he couldn't legitimately pass security!

[no_hypocrisy]

10. Likely Kushner stance:

Let me build four hotel resorts in Ukraine and you can have the whole country.

7. If Kushner is involved it is about BIG MONEY.

11. Moving closer to

Trump hotel and casino in Moscow! Sorry Ukraine, check the exhaust pipes while you’re under that bus!

12. Kushner is on the council of Indian Creek Village, Florida

so he clearly has the standing to negotiate away a different nation's sovereignty and set up seemingly-lucrative deals for himself in the Russian Arctic (though it takes a special and ruthless operator to actually extract real money out of Russia, when Putin and his gang of experienced mob bosses are on the spot).
