Trump Administration Considers Reshuffling Ukraine Negotiation Team, CIA Director Ratcliffe Eyed for Expanded Role

The Trump administration is reportedly considering a significant reshuffle of its negotiating team for the Ukraine conflict, potentially reducing the roles of Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and President Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. According to sources cited by the Financial Times, CIA Director John Ratcliffe may take on a more prominent role in discussions with Moscow and Kyiv. This potential change comes after dissatisfaction in both Ukraine and among Western allies regarding the lack of progress in negotiations, with Witkoff's unconventional style drawing criticism. Ukrainian officials felt Witkoff did not exert enough pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin, while Moscow reportedly blamed him for the failure of the Trump-Putin summit in Alaska in August 2025. The White House and the CIA have denied these reports, stating the information is false and that no final decision has been made by President Trump.
