Ukraine is seeking to hold the second Peace Summit with Russia before the US elections in November this year.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Bloomberg.
The publication notes that Kyiv's desire to organize a meeting before the US elections indicates that Ukraine feels an urgency as it faces the prospect of Donald Trump returning to the White House. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee has boasted that he would end the war by the time he is inaugurated in January and has spoken out against continued US military support for Kyiv.
According to Bloomberg, a Ukrainian official confirmed the plan to hold a second summit before the US elections. Several officials from some Western allies said that any meeting would have to be carefully organized with a clear purpose and manageable expectations.
However, some U.S. officials are not convinced that a summit with Russia and Ukraine will take place.
