Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told journalists that the United States has proposed a trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the US, and Russia at the level of National Security Advisors (NSA), and Kyiv supports the idea, APA reports quoting RBC Ukraine.

He said the proposal was communicated to him by Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Rustem Umerov, who is currently in the US and held talks yesterday with American and European partners on ending the war.

"Regarding Umerov, he called me and said that the United States is proposing a trilateral NSA meeting — America, Ukraine, Russia," Zelenskyy said.

The president noted that he is not sure the meeting will produce anything new, but added that similar meetings in Türkiye previously yielded results, including the return of captured military personnel and civilians. Therefore, Ukraine supports the US proposal.

"If such a meeting can now unblock exchanges, or if the result of a trilateral NSA meeting could be an agreement on a trilateral leaders' summit, I cannot be against it. We will support the US proposal," Zelenskyy concluded.
