The next talks planned on a ceasefire and end to the war in Ukraine won’t involve top US Cabinet-level officials, but instead will be at a technical level with expert officials, the State Department said, APA reports citing CNN.
That contradicts what Special Envoy Steve Witkoff told Fox News on Tuesday. He said Secretary of State Marco Rubio and national security adviser Mike Waltz would be going back to Jeddah for meetings on Sunday.
That hasn’t been planned, according to officials.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said today that the talks will be attended by “technical teams.”
“It will not be principals going to those negotiations,” she said at briefing, adding it would be “senior staff addressing technical frameworks.”
