Ukraine is prepared for negotiations in all possible formats and expects the United States to play an active role during August.

According to Ukrinform, Zelensky stated this in his evening address.

The president said Ukraine continues to coordinate closely with the United States.

"First, a meeting on the negotiations – primarily our coordination with the United States. We are in contact with President Trump's envoys every day, and that is important. At the meeting in Washington, we discussed how new circumstances could be created to enable real diplomacy. We are working to make all this happen. Budanov, Umerov, Arakhamiia, and Kyslytsya delivered reports – each on their respective elements of the negotiation track – on where we currently stand in the negotiations and what is happening in Moscow regarding its attitude toward the negotiations. We will be ready for meetings in any format, and we expect Witkoff and Kushner to be active now, in August," Zelensky said.
