That's everything we know.
Why this mattersSo why does this meeting matter so much?
Because of what just happened in Abu Dhabi.
For two days, American, Russian and Ukrainian officials sat down together. First direct talks in nine months.
They agreed on a prisoner exchange. Jared Kushner says it's the biggest one of the whole war.
But the hard part? Still unresolved. Territory. Nobody's cracked it.
So the Americans flew straight to Moscow. And they want one specific thing from Putin.
They want him to let Europe into the room.
Jared Kushner says quote "we see some openings and some opportunities".
He's told Putin's team directly that Europe needs to be involved for any deal to work. He thinks Russia's open to it. He's hoping to walk out of Moscow with what he calls Putin's blessing.
But here's the thing. Russia hasn't exactly been welcoming.
Vladimir Medinsky, who led Russia's side in Abu Dhabi, said Europeans could join only once they develop a conscience.
That's how far apart everyone still is on this.
And Putin isn't going in blind either. Sergei Lavrov says Putin will hear from his own Abu Dhabi team first. Then the Americans. Then he decides what Russia does next.
So the Americans aren't the only ones setting the story before this meeting starts.
Now look at where they're going next.
After Moscow, Witkoff and Kushner head to Dublin. That's where Volodymyr Zelenskyy is, at a summit with leaders from more than 40 countries, including Canada's Mark Carney and NATO's Mark Rutte.
Reports don't agree on when that meeting happens. Could be later today. Could be tomorrow.
Zelenskyy has already said what he wants from Washington. He says it's essential the US, in his words, "exert influence on the source of this war — that is Russia."
So Ukraine's president is asking America to lean on Moscow. In public. Right before Moscow gets this exact visit.
Nobody knows what Putin will say. Nobody knows what the Americans are offering him in return. And nobody's even confirmed which day Zelenskyy gets his meeting.
What happens in Moscow in the next few hours decides whether Europe gets a seat at this table at all.
