1. Various of meeting between United States Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, French officials and Jonathan Powell, United Kingdom National Security Adviser
STORYLINE:
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff met with French officials and the UK’s National Security Advisor Jonathan Powell in Paris on Thursday.
Paris is hosting a series of talks Thursday about Ukraine and its security, including U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Witkoff, French President Emmanuel Macron and top Ukrainian officials.
Rubio arrived in Paris on Thursday morning.
Rubio and Witkoff will have “talks with European counterparts to advance President Trump’s goal to end the Russia-Ukraine war and stop the bloodshed,” State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce said.
The meetings come as concerns grow about Trump’s readiness to draw closer to Russia as he seeks to broker a ceasefire in Ukraine and his administration’s other moves, from tariffs on some of its closest partners to rhetoric about NATO and Greenland.
