Ukraine and U.S. Officials to Meet in Geneva Ahead of Trilateral Talks with Russia

Ukrainian lead negotiator Rustem Umerov is set to meet U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Geneva to discuss a "prosperity package" for Ukraine's reconstruction and prisoner-of-war exchanges. These talks precede anticipated trilateral negotiations with Russia in early March aimed at ending the ongoing conflict. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and U.S. President Trump recently spoke, agreeing that progress should lead to a leaders' meeting. Despite efforts, key issues like territorial disputes remain unresolved.
