The Guardian - Kyiv will propose an aerial and naval ceasefire with Russia during talks with US officials in Saudi Arabia this week, a Ukrainian official told AFP as president Volodymyr Zelenskyy was due to arrive in the kingdom. Those discussions from Tuesday will be the first Ukraine-US meeting since a White House blowup between Zelenskyy and US president Donald Trump that led to Washington halting military aid to Kyiv.
“We do have a proposal for a ceasefire in the sky and ceasefire at sea,” the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity. "Because these are the ceasefire options that are easy to install and to monitor and it’s possible to start with them.”
The air, sea ceasefire proposal was originally floated by French president Emmanuel Macron after the London summit just over a week ago. Ukrainian and American officials will meet on Tuesday to seek a way out of the conflict more than three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion.
