Zelensky says Ukraine peace talks have become a βSanta Barbaraβ drama
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said efforts to organize negotiations on Ukraine have turned into a full-blown βSanta Barbaraβ drama because of the war in the Middle East.
Peace talks between Ukraine, the United States and Russia have been postponed again. The meeting was initially planned for late February, then moved to last week, but was delayed once more because of Russia, Zelensky said, according to Suspilne .
βThere is a whole Santa Barbara with these negotiations because of the war in the Middle East. The Americans said they are ready for a meeting, but only in America, because the war and the security situation prevent them from leaving US territory right now,β Zelensky said.
According to Zelensky, the Ukrainian side offered to fly to Miami or Washington for the talks. But the Russians did not want to travel to the United States. They proposed Turkey or Switzerland instead, but Washington did not approve that option.
The president stressed that Ukraine is ready to meet with the Americans and the Russians in any country - the United States, Turkey, Switzerland and even the UAE. But the venue, he said, depends entirely on the American delegation.
βThey are the organizers of this meeting. We are waiting for them,β the Ukrainian leader said.
On March 12 in Florida, a US delegation led by President Donald Trumpβs special envoy Steve Witkoff held a meeting with a Russian delegation headed by Kremlin representative Kirill Dmitriev.

Kyivβs drone campaign base has expanded the βkill zoneβ without sending soldiers to battle
