Witkoff and Kushner arrive in Moscow with plan to end war before visit to Kyiv

CNN Portugal5 September 2026 at 12:10

Donald Trump's special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, arrived in Moscow with a plan to end the war in Ukraine. This visit to the Russian capital is part of the Trump administration's diplomatic efforts to mediate a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine.

After the trip to Moscow, the two special envoys are expected to travel to the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, for the first time. This will be the first time Witkoff and Kushner visit Ukraine in the context of these negotiations.

The visit to Moscow represents a significant moment in the attempts to achieve a ceasefire, allowing Trump's representatives to present the peace plan directly to Russian leadership. The main objective of these trips is to secure an agreement that ends the conflict that has been ongoing for several years.

Why does the US celebrate Labor Day on September 7th?

The United States celebrates Labor Day on the first Monday of September, and not on May 1st like most countries, due to the history of the American labor movement. The first celebration took place on September 5, 1882 in New York, organized by the Central Labor Union. In 1894, President Grover Cleveland made the date an official federal holiday. The reason for choosing September is linked to the fact that May 1st became associated with the events of the Haymarket Revolt in Chicago (1886) and with radical and socialist labor movements, which the US government preferred to avoid. Additionally, September helped fill the gap between Independence Day (July 4th) and Thanksgiving (November).
