More Peaceful Promises in Ukraine: A Familiar Pattern The recent visit by US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to Kyiv aimed at ending the war between Ukraine and Russia is a reminder that peace negotiations often follow a predictable pattern.

In 2022, similar envoys visited Moscow only to see their efforts met with increased aggression from Russia.
