The US has asked Russia to propose a new European security pact as part of efforts to end the war in Ukraine, which could take into account Moscow's long-standing demands to limit NATO expansion and reduce its military presence in Eastern Europe. Washington wants Russia to take steps designed to reduce tensions and ensure that European countries are safe from future attacks. Trump's emissaries, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, will meet with Putin in Moscow on Thursday to discuss the proposal and urge European countries to participate in peace talks despite Russian opposition and European skepticism. The envoys are then expected to travel to Dublin to meet with Ukrainian President Zansky on Thursday.
