Steve Witkoff, the envoy of the Trump administration for the Middle East, stated that he is working to organize a meeting with the Ukrainian delegation in Saudi Arabia to discuss a peace agreement.
“We are currently in discussions to coordinate a meeting with the Ukrainians in Riyadh or possibly in Jeddah, but it has been decided that it will be in Saudi Arabia,” Witkoff told reporters in Washington DC.
“I think the idea is to formulate a framework for a peace agreement and an initial ceasefire,” Witkoff added.
Witkoff’s statements come after Volodymyr Zelensky told the European Council that Ukraine hopes to have a “meaningful meeting” with the US next week.
