Handelsblatt also reported that negotiations on Ukraine in Berlin will continue on Monday.
"Efforts to reach a possible ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia will continue in Berlin on Monday. What specific proposals are currently on the table has not yet been made public. However, it is clear that the US government has at least preliminarily acknowledged the prospects of success of the Berlin talks, as it made the dispatch of a delegation to Germany, which arrived on Sunday, conditional on this," Handelsblatt said.
Handelsblatt also previously reported, citing dpa, that German Chancellor Friedrich Merz had left the talks after a brief greeting. Merz's Foreign and Security Policy Adviser Günter Sautter remained in the room as moderator.
