Ukraine's chief negotiator, Rustem Umerov, has arrived in Miami for meetings with U.S. representatives, including special envoy Steve Witkoff. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy stated that Umerov is meeting with President Donald Trump’s envoys in a bid to reinvigorate peace talks with Russia.
The effort comes as US-mediated talks to end Europe's worst conflict since World War II have stalled in recent months. These discussions have shown little progress since February.
The delays in talks between the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia began in February, when Washington shifted its focus to its war with Iran.
