Ukraine asks US to postpone another meeting on peace talks
The head of state announced this in an interview with Rai Italia.
The next trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the United States, and Russia was scheduled for March 5-9, depending on what was happening in the world. There is another war in the world right now in the Middle East. We talked to the American side — because they are the party inviting Ukraine and Russia to the meeting — about a possible change of venue and postponement of the meeting for some time because of the war in the Middle East.

The exchange of prisoners of war is always an important moment, it is positive for the families. We very much hope that in the coming days we will be able to begin this exchange process.
