At the meeting with the US team in Jeddah, Ukraine proposed three main points: silence in the sky, silence at sea, real confidence-building measures regarding the entire situation - primarily the release of prisoners and the return of Ukrainian children, and the American side accepts the Ukrainian proposals, said President Volodymyr Zelensky in an address, reports UNN.
Our Ukrainian proposal for this meeting with the Americans included three things: silence in the sky – rockets, bombs, and long-range drones, silence at sea, and real confidence-building measures regarding the entire situation, in which diplomacy is ongoing, namely primarily – the release of prisoners – our military and civilians – and the return of Ukrainian children who were taken to Russia. The American side understands our arguments, accepts our proposals, and I want to thank President Trump for the constructiveness of our teams' conversation.
