Ukraine President Voludmir Zelinski receipt In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to visit the Crown Prince and Prime Minister in the Kingdom before meetings with US diplomats, they focused on the bilateral mineral deal and ended the Ukraine war with Russia.

Saudi government television reported the access of Zelenskyy to Jeddah, a port city on the Red Sea where the American Ukraine summit will be held on Tuesday. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will meet on Monday, before Ukrainian officials – including Foreign Minister Andre Sibha and Defense Secretary Rostam Omerov – sit with the Americans on Tuesday.

“Ukraine has been seeking peace since the second of the war, and we have always said that the only reason for the continuation of the war is because of Russia,” Zelinski wrote on social media.

US Secretary of State Mark Rubio arrived in Jeddah shortly after Zelinski. The first diplomat in the United States is leading a delegation that also includes Mike Waltz, a national security adviser to US President Donald Trump.

Rubio said it is important to prove the intentions of Ukraine clearly to reach a point where peace with Russia is possible.

He spoke to the correspondents on their way to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to attend a meeting on Tuesday with Ukrainian officials. Rubio stressed that it is important to leave the meeting with a strong sense that Ukraine is ready to “do difficult things” – just like the Russians.

The tensions have been high between Ukraine and the United States since the meeting of an oval office on February 28 between Zelinski and Trump to Hajjah, and led to the United States to suspend all military aid to Ukraine.

Charles Stratford of the island of Kiev said that in Ukraine, there is an talk that Zelinski was planning to present a partial endowment, which he was almost ended in the end of hostilities in the sky and at the sea.

“The president hopes to reduce this type of message in some way from this pressure that the United States put on Ukraine. We are talking about the suspension of military aid, and the suspension of full access to intelligence and satellite photos.”

He added: “Some analysts are interesting, they say that if Zellinski played it properly, he can return the ball into the Russian court – where the Russians were really testing, who have so far hated any partial ceasefire.”

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Ukraine should decide whether it wants peace.

Peskov told the correspondents that “it is not important to expect” from the upcoming US -Ukrainian talks in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.

“The important thing here is what the United States expects. At different levels, you and I repeatedly heard statements stating that the United States is awaiting an offer to the Ukrainians’ desire for peace,” said Peskov.

In fact, perhaps this is what everyone awaits. Whether the members of the Zelenskyy system really want peace or not – this is very important and needs to be determined. “

Russia is advancing in your courses

At the same time, on The confrontation lineRussian forces climbed to the Ukrainian forces, which held parts of the Russian Kursk region, while also trying to obtain a foothold in the Sumeri region of Ukraine.

Ukrainian soldiers launched their bold attack to Russia’s Kursk in August, where they even collided with their Western allies to fall and deal with an embarrassing blow to the Kremlin.

But Ukraine lost the land and acknowledged last month that it lost two thirds of the lands it controlled once inside the region.

On Monday, the Russian War Blog, two specializations, said that the Russian forces have cleared the settlement of Evashkovsky units and the Russian units are advancing in Korsk from at least seven directions.

Yuri Bodoyaka, the newly born Ukrainian military blogger, said he is facing a problem in keeping up with the events because the Russian progress was very fast.

He said that the Ukrainian units were besieged in several pockets in Kursk.

“Over the past four days, the Russian forces have cleared the largest possible number of lands in the Kursk region, and they were sometimes unable to clear within two months,” said another Russian near the Ministry of Defense, which writes the Rybar Code.

“The front has been hacked,” said Khalq Ribar, adding that the Russian forces gather inside the Ukrainian border to cut the main roads leading from Kursk to the Sumerin region of Ukraine.

However, Ukrainian commander Olexander Serski said that Kyiv is strengthening her forces.

“I made a decision to strengthen our assembly with the necessary powers and means, including electronic warfare and unmanned components,” Serski wrote in a social media post.

He has addressed the concerns circulating in the Ukrainian media that the country’s forces may be surrounded, saying: “Currently, there is no threat to encourage our units in the Kursk region.”

He admitted that the Ukrainian forces were roaming under Russian pressure and had to return to easier sites to keep them.

“The units are taking time measures to maneuver for favorable defense lines,” Serski said.

Separately, the Ukraine Army said that its forces fired drones strike many Russian targets, including oil refineries, “supplying the invaders.”

The army said: “The Defense Forces continue to take all measures to undermine the military and economic capabilities of the Russian occupiers and force the Russian Federation to stop its armed aggression against Ukraine.”

However, the Russian Ministry of Defense said that air defense systems had destroyed two Ukrainian drones.

The ministry wrote on Telegram on Monday that one had been dropped on the Russian Baljuod region and the other on the Kursk region, both of whom sit on the border with Ukraine.
