The United States and Russia are set to begin peace negotiations aimed at ending the war in Ukraine, with a team of US advisers meeting with Russian officials in Saudi Arabia. The delegation will be led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz.
The US is working to facilitate peace talks and has confirmed that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be involved in the process, with the possibility of allowing European nations to purchase US-made weapons for Ukraine. The potential terms of an agreement remain unclear.
