Quote: "Sources tell me the highly anticipated Witkoff-Kushner trip to Ukraine has been 'slightly delayed, not cancelled' – due to last week's intensified missile and drone strikes on Kyiv."
Details: Raufoglu also noted that six European leaders had arrived in Kyiv on 23 August: the leaders of Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Denmark, Norway and Finland.
Background:
- On 24 August, UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham will arrive in Ukraine on his first international visit. He is expected to announce support for Ukraine's production of long-range missiles.
- As early as late July, reports in the media said that Witkoff and Kushner were likely to visit Kyiv during Ukraine's Independence Day celebrations.
