Ukrainian negotiators to visit the US on October 9-10

Vladimir Zelensky announced that Ukrainian negotiators will travel to the United States for meetings with the American side on October 9-10. He called on Washington to increase pressure on Russia, commenting on a recent statement by Marco Rubio.

"You cannot negotiate economic cooperation with Russia on one hand while talking about a diplomatic deadlock on the other," said Zelensky. Previously, the US Secretary of State stated that the Ukrainian conflict has reached a stalemate, which could lead to dangerous escalation. Trump, conversely, recently said the conflict is nearing completion, though this is not yet evident.
