In Davos, Switzerland, US and Russian envoys met at the World Economic Forum on January 21, 2026, amid the postponement of an $800 billion Ukraine reconstruction plan. US special envoy Steve Witkoff, along with Jared Kushner, met with Russian special envoy Kirill Dmitriev for over two hours. Witkoff confirmed plans to meet with both President Putin and the Ukrainian delegation in Moscow on Thursday. The Kremlin acknowledged the scheduled meeting with Putin. The signing of the "prosperity plan," involving Ukraine, Europe, and the US, was delayed due to tensions within NATO over President Trump's interest in acquiring Greenland, according to the Financial Times. The plan has not been shelved indefinitely and could be signed at a later date.
