WASHINGTON/KYIV, Dec. 1 (Xinhua) — U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said "additional" progress was made on a revised peace plan to resolve the Ukraine crisis during about four hours of talks with a Ukrainian delegation in Florida on Sunday, but "more work remains to be done."
"This is a delicate and complex process," M. Rubio told reporters after the meeting. "There are a lot of moving parts, and obviously there's another party involved that has to be part of the equation."
"We don't just want to end the war, we also want to help Ukraine stay safe forever," a senior US diplomat said.
Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Rustem Umerov described the negotiations as “difficult, but productive.”
"We have made tangible progress in establishing a just peace," R. Umerov, who leads the Ukrainian negotiating team, wrote on Facebook.
He added that the meeting was meaningful and successful, and that much work remains ahead. He stated that both sides will continue consultations and coordination regarding further steps for peace in Ukraine.
The final round of talks between the two sides took place earlier that day in Hallandale Beach, Florida. Neither M. Rubio nor R. Umerov responded to journalists' questions after the meeting.
US Presidential Special Representative Steven Witkoff and the American leader's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, also joined the Sunday talks and will fly to Moscow on Monday for further discussions, the Wall Street Journal reports. –0–
