Sources from the Financial Times have spoken about preparing for talks in Saudi Arabia, but Kiev said he would like to propose a partial ceasefire, including a long-range strike in Russia and a military operation in the Black Sea.
In this way, Ukraine hopes that progress in consultations will encourage Washington to reverse its decision to suspend intelligence sharing and weapons supply.
Ukrainian officials said Kyiv will prioritize relations with the US in the short term.
Meanwhile, two European officials said Ukraine views the progress of the ceasefire conference as a “Quid Pro Quo” for the reopening of military and intelligence reporting support.
A US State Department spokesman said Secretary of State Marco Rubio will be in Jeddah, Saudi city from Monday to Wednesday to “advance the president’s goals to end the Russian-Ukraine war.”
