Description
The Trump administration lifted its suspension of military aid and intelligence sharing for Ukraine, and Kyiv signaled that it was open to a 30-day ceasefire in the war with Russia, pending Moscow’s agreement, American officials said Tuesday following talks in Saudi Arabia.
The administration imposed the measures a week ago to push Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to enter talks to end the war with invading Russian forces.
"We made an offer that the Ukrainians have accepted, which is to enter into a ceasefire and into immediate negotiations to end this conflict in a way that's enduring and sustainable and accounts for their interests, their security, their ability to prosper as a nation," said Secretary of State Marco Rubio, adding that the U.S. would present the ceasefire offer to the Kremlin.
National security adviser Mike Waltz said, "The Ukrainian delegation today made something very clear, that they share President Trump’s vision for peace.”
Waltz said negotiators “got into substantive details on how this war is going to permanently end,” including long-term security guarantees.
The announcements emerged as senior officials from Ukraine and the United States opened talks in Saudi Arabia focused on ending Moscow’s three-year war against Kyiv.
The discussions started only hours after Russia shot down over 300 Ukrainian drones. It was Ukraine’s biggest attack since the Kremlin ordered the full-scale invasion of its neighbor.
