Crucial meeting ahead: Ukraine’s future may be decided soon

Ukraine and its Western allies are approaching another pivotal moment in their diplomatic efforts to end the war.

This weekend, national security advisers from the so-called E3 countries – France, the United Kingdom and Germany – will meet in Geneva with representatives of the European Union, the United States and Ukraine.

According to Telex, the main topic on the agenda is Washington’s newly presented 28-point peace proposal, which in recent days has generated significant tension between Kyiv and its American partners.

Ukraine’s fate can be sealed very soon?

The meeting was confirmed on the sidelines of the G20 summit. Ukraine’s National Security and Defence Council Secretary, Rustem Umerov, announced that high-level consultations between Ukrainian and US officials would begin in Switzerland on the potential parameters of a future peace agreement.

Umerov stressed that Kyiv values the American side’s engagement and willingness to enter meaningful negotiations.

President Volodymyr Zelensky has approved the composition of Ukraine’s negotiating delegation, which will be led by the head of the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak.

Among the members are Umerov, intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov, Chief of the General Staff Andriy Hnatov, as well as senior figures from the Foreign Ministry and the security services.
