Visits by Trump’s representatives to Kyiv
As was reported, although Ukrainian and American officials have been discussing the envoys’ visit to Kyiv for months, it has always been canceled at the last moment for various reasons.
3 September, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy announced agreement with the preliminary dates for the Trump representatives’ visit to Kyiv. He expressed readiness for a substantive meeting.
In turn, Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga expressed the belief that without American participation it is unrealistic to end Russia’s war against Ukraine. In this regard, Sibiga expects new momentum in peaceful efforts to stop Russia’s war against Ukraine.
