A Ukrainian team has arrived in Saudi Arabia for meetings in preparation for a possible visit by President Volodymyr Zelensky, as talks between the US and Russia to end Moscow's war on Ukraine loom. The Ukrainian team's focus is on strengthening economic ties and signing important economic agreements with countries in the region. There is no possibility of Ukrainian and Russian officials meeting directly in the immediate future. US special envoy Steve Witkoff and national security adviser Mike Waltz are heading to Saudi to make progress on Russia-Ukraine relations, but did not directly address the question of territorial concessions by Ukraine.
