Zelenskiy proposes fresh talks with US envoys, backs conditional energy truce
Zelenskiy says Ukraine is ready for meetings with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in the coming days and supports Trump’s proposed energy truce if Russia complies.
Kyiv, Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday that he had suggested meeting US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in the coming days. His proposal comes amid intensified Washington efforts to restart negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow.
Proposals sent to Washington
During his nightly video address, Zelenskiy said his team had submitted proposals to the US side covering potential meetings and discussions. He said Ukraine was ready to meet within days and that his team had conveyed the invitation to Witkoff and Kushner.
The initiative follows discussions held last week in the United States, where the two envoys told Ukrainian delegates that an agreement permitting Russian diesel exports was intended to encourage Moscow to resume negotiations.
Conditional support for energy truce
Zelenskiy also said Ukraine backed the energy truce proposed by President Donald Trump, provided Russia complied with it.
