Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Wednesday hailed this week's meeting in Saudi Arabia between U.S. and Ukrainian officials as constructive, and said a potential 30-day ceasefire with Russia could be used to draft a broader peace deal.
Zelenskyy made the remark during a briefing in Kyiv, where he said Ukraine supported a U.S. effort to end Russia's three-year-old invasion as soon as possible, and that the resumption of U.S. military aid and intelligence sharing was very positive.
"I am very serious (about a ceasefire) and for me it is important to end the war," Zelenskyy said during a briefing in Kyiv, where he described the resumption of U.S. aid and intelligence as very positive.
"We are ready for a ceasefire for 30 days as proposed by the American side."
Zelenskyy added that the Jeddah meeting had helped "de-escalate" tensions between the U.S. and Ukraine after a White House clash between him and President Donald Trump last month.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said after the talks in Jeddah that the U.S. would now take the offer to Russia, and that the ball was in Moscow's court.
The Kremlin said on Wednesday it was awaiting details from Washington on the 30-day ceasefire proposal.
