According to Ukrinform, this is stated in a joint statement by the leaders of the three countries posted on Thursday on the White House's official website.
"It is time to conclude a ceasefire agreement and release hostages and detainees. The three of us and our teams have been working tirelessly for months to create the framework agreement that is now on the table, and all that remains is to agree on the details of its implementation," - the statement said.
It is noted that the agreement is based on the principles set out by President Biden on May 31, 2024 and approved by a UN Security Council resolution.
