CIA Director John Ratcliffe traveled to Moscow on Tuesday for talks with Russian officials, marking his first visit to the Russian capital since taking office and the highest-level trip by a Trump administration official to Russia since January.
Ratcliffe left Washington on Sunday aboard a U.S. government aircraft and traveled to Latvia. On Tuesday, he flew from Riga to Moscow aboard a U.S. Air Force C-17.
The visit comes as the Trump administration continues diplomatic engagement with Russia. Before Ratcliffe’s trip, U.S. officials informed Ukraine that a senior American delegation would be traveling to Moscow and asked Kyiv to pause strikes while the delegation remained in the region.
The CIA has not publicly commented on Ratcliffe’s travel or the purpose of his meetings in Moscow.
