Description

Top American officials, including U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, are in Saudi Arabia ahead of upcoming negotiations with Russian officials on ending the war in Ukraine — without any officials from Kyiv present. According to the Trump administration, separate discussions with Ukraine will begin later this week after President Donald Trump said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will be involved in peace talks. Zelenskyy has said he "will never accept" any peace deal that does not include Ukraine at the negotiating table. ------------------------------------- Join our newsletter at https://bit.ly/2q1tepr Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/scrippsnews/ Follow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/scrippsnews Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scrippsnews/ Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@scrippsnews
