The US has resumed military aid to Ukraine after Kyiv backed a 30-day ceasefire proposal with Russia. Talks continue as Moscow’s response remains uncertain.
The United States has agreed to resume military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine after Kyiv expressed support for a proposed 30-day ceasefire with Russia. The agreement follows discussions in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stating that the next move now depends on Moscow.
While Russian President Vladimir Putin has indicated openness to peace talks, the Kremlin has rejected short-term ceasefires and insists on Ukraine withdrawing from four contested regions. A Russian lawmaker reiterated that any agreement must be on Russia’s terms.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy welcomed the proposal, stating that the ceasefire would apply to all frontline combat and allow time for further diplomatic efforts. The plan will be conveyed to Russia through multiple diplomatic channels, with US representatives scheduled to meet Russian officials in the coming days.
The agreement marks a shift in US policy after military aid was suspended following a February meeting between Trump and Zelenskiy. Assistance has now resumed, with equipment from US stockpiles set to be delivered.
European nations are also engaged, with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte due to visit the White House and Poland reaffirming its support for Ukraine.
Meanwhile, hostilities continue, with Russia launching new offensives and Ukraine carrying out its largest drone attack on Moscow to date. As diplomatic efforts progress, Russia’s response to the ceasefire proposal remains uncertain.
