Putin’s Envoy Cruises to Miami While Trump Ghosts Budapest
In a diplomatic soap opera that’s part thriller, part reality show, Vladimir Putin’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev is making a surprise cameo in Miami this Saturday, meeting with White House envoy Steve Witkoff. This Miami meet-and-greet drama unfolds amidst America’s fresh sanctions slapped Wednesday on Russia’s oil giants—scooping them up like limited-edition energy collectibles! Trump, ever the plot-twister, ‘canceled’ his Budapest Putin summit plans citing zero results, promising to ‘do it sometime in the future’—translation: let’s ghost but keep the hotline open. CNN spilled the tea first, and whether Dmitriev meets other US bigwigs remains a mystery hotter than a Florida afternoon.
