Ceasefire Talks in Saudi Arabia: Zelensky Stresses Red Lines
With peace talks set for Monday in Saudi Arabia, President Zelensky urged Russia to drop conditions that stall progress—like demands to stop all Western support. He also pushed back on the idea that Ukraine should give up NATO ambitions or transfer nuclear infrastructure to the US.
While both Moscow and Kyiv have expressed interest in a ceasefire, continued airstrikes suggest deep divisions remain. Zelensky said the priority is halting attacks by land and sea, and confirmed that Ukraine will provide the US with a list of infrastructure needing protection.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, meanwhile, called for pre-arranged military support mechanisms to ensure any peace deal is enforceable.
