"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is stepping up global efforts to thrash out a peace agreement, sending a negotiating team to the United States and planning a trip to Paris himself as his government battles a corruption scandal and intensified Russian air attacks."
"Zelenskyy on November 29 said he dispatched the negotiating team to the United States as part of efforts to seek a "dignified peace" and an end to the all-out war launched by Russia in February 2022. He said the delegation will be led by Rustem Umerov, a former defense minister who is now secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council and a member of Kyiv's negotiating team."

The delegation will be led by Rustem Umerov, secretary of Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council and a member of Kyiv's negotiating team. US officials including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, special envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner will meet the delegation in Florida, and Witkoff is slated to travel to Moscow. President Emmanuel Macron will host Zelenskyy in Paris to discuss conditions for a just and lasting peace. Kyiv and European allies seek alternatives after concerns that a 28-point US proposal favored Russia, prompting bilateral talks and a push for revisions.
