The two Ukrainian negotiators who met White House envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Miami last week will present "in detail" this Monday to Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski the draft agreed with the Americans in that final round of contacts.

Hours before the announcement by the head of the National Security Council, Rustem Umerov, US President Donald Trumptold reporters  that the representatives of Kiev and Russia agreed with the latest draft of the peace plan, but was "a little disappointed" that Zelenski "has not yet read the proposal."

After the last round of contacts of Ukrainian emissaries with the Americans, the Ukrainian President has pointed out that some details of the plan can only be dealt with in person and not by telephone.

Zelensky will be in London on Mondayto meet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and then plans to travel to Brussels to meet his main European allies as well.

Umerov and the other Ukrainian negotiator, Chief of Staff André Gnatov, will also travel to London to meet Zelensky.

Zelenski spoke on the phone with Witkoff and Kushner at the end of his meetings with his envoys. The Ukrainian president described the conversation with Trump's envoys as "constructive, but not easy. "



One of the main points of disagreement between Ukrainians and Russians is the Kremlin's demand thatKiev give it the territory it still controls in Donbas. Moscow also demands that Ukraine refuse to join NATO and that Alliance members deploy troops on its territory after the war to prevent Russia from attacking again.
