Details: Zelenskyy said Ukraine is "in constant communication with the American side".

Quote: "Our teams are talking. And we need to work towards peace. We need to find the right ways to act. Ukraine is ready for meetings. Ukraine supported the American president's proposal for an energy ceasefire. Russia must also be part of this agreement."

Details: Zelenskyy also said the Ukrainian team has sent Washington "the relevant proposals for possible next meetings and further talks".

"We are ready to meet in the coming days, and I sent this proposal to Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner through my team. On the Ukrainian side, there is always a constructive approach, and our positions are always absolutely clear and focused on protecting the independence of the Ukrainian people," the president added.

Background:

• Last weekend, Witkoff and Kushner met with Ukraine's negotiating team and representatives of European countries in Miami. The talks ended earlier than planned.
• The US president's envoys told the Ukrainian negotiators during the Miami talks that the agreement permitting Russian diesel exports is part of an attempt to bring Russia back to the negotiating table.
• The New York Times reported that Witkoff interrupted the Miami talks to take part in a phone call between Trump and Putin.
