Earlier, Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said the U.S. delegation had assured Russian officials it would return directly to Washington.
On Monday, Axios reporter Barak Ravid said U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner would travel from Moscow to Brussels — one of several possible European capitals — for a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
But on Tuesday, Euronews correspondent Alex Raufoglu reported that the meeting had been cancelled.
"According to sources, the meeting in Brussels has been called off. Zelensky is heading home," he said.
Raufoglu also recalled Ushakov’s earlier comment that the U.S. envoys had promised “not to go to Kyiv, but to return home, to Washington.”
