Ukraine will open talks with the US next week on a bilateral security guarantee from Washington, according to Andriy Yermak, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s chief of staff.

Saudi Arabia will host a meeting of national security and political advisers “soon” to discuss support for Ukraine’s peace demands, following a meeting of Kyiv’s key backers and developing nations in Denmark in June, Yermak said. The goal is to reach a global summit of heads of state, which could take place by the end of the year, he added.
