A meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US special presidential envoy Steve Witkoff is scheduled for the afternoon of December 2, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

"Yes, the meeting with Witkoff is scheduled for tomorrow. He himself mentioned this yesterday," the spokesman replied to a question on the matter, specifying that the talks would take place in the afternoon.

"The president will also hold several closed-door meetings today in preparation for tomorrow's Russia-US contacts," Peskov added.
