Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says his country believes the US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in the war with Russia is "positive."
He said it covers the frontline in the conflict, not just fighting by air and sea, reports the Deutsche Welle.
"Ukraine welcomes this proposal ... we are ready to take such a step. The US has to convince Russiato do this," Zelenskyy said, adding that "the American side understands our arguments."
Zelenskyy made the comments in his evening address, following a meeting between US officials and a Ukrainian delegation in Saudi Arabia.
A top aide to Zelenskyy said options for security guarantees to Ukraine were also discussed with the US team, without providing more details.
