KYIV:

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday that Kyiv and its partners were considering arranging a high-level meeting between Ukraine, Russia, the United States, European Union countries and Britain as part of a push to end Moscow's war in Ukraine.

Speaking to reporters in Kyiv after holding two phone calls with US President Donald Trump, the Ukrainian leader said he hoped the meeting could happen as soon as possible and that it could be hosted by Turkey, the Vatican or Switzerland.

"We are considering a meeting of all teams at a high level," he said. Zelenskiy said he spoke to Trump one-on-one on Monday before the US leader called Russian President Vladimir Putin, and again afterwards in a conversation that involved the leaders of France, Finland, Germany, Italy and the European Union.
