Senior officials from the US and Ukraine met in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to mend a fractured relationship following significant cutbacks in US support for Ukraine. The talks, led by Ukraine's Andriy Yermak, included discussions with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. This meeting marks the first engaging dialogue since a heated dispute between Trump and Zelenskyy, where military and intelligence support for Ukraine was halted. As the war intensifies, Zelensky is open to negotiating on mineral wealth in hopes of restoring critical US security assurances that are crucial against Russian aggressions.
The key is to move quickly and effectively as the Ukrainian delegation meets US officials for the first time since a disastrous Oval Office argument.
Zelenskyy seeks to repair ties with the US and sign a minerals deal, despite skepticism over obtaining essential security guarantees from Washington.
