Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a “positive, substantive, and frank” conversation with US President Donald Trump, emphasizing joint efforts to achieve a lasting peace in Ukraine.
Zelenskyy thanked Trump for the productive start to Ukrainian-American peace discussions in Jeddah on March 11, stating that the meeting helped advance steps toward ending the war.
”We agreed that Ukraine and the United States should continue working together to achieve a real end to the war and lasting peace. We believe that together with America, with President Trump, and under American leadership, lasting peace can be achieved this year,” Zelenskyy wrote on X.
He also revealed that Ukraine has accepted a US proposal for an unconditional ceasefire on the frontline.
“One of the first steps toward fully ending the war could be stopping strikes on energy and other civilian infrastructure. I supported this step, and Ukraine confirmed that we are ready to implement it,” the Ukrainian President said.
Zelenskyy added that the sides agreed to maintain constant contact through their teams.
