Ukraine is ready for the next round of negotiations in either Miami or Abu Dhabi, but the Russian side has not yet confirmed its participation.

President Volodymyr Zelensky stated this during a press conference, Ukrinform's correspondent reports.

"As for the meeting in Miami or Abu Dhabi. Why do I say 'or'? Because the American side has already proposed a meeting next week in the United States, in Miami, and we immediately confirmed. We were waiting for a response from the Russians. So far, as I understand it, Russia is hesitating," Zelensky noted.

He suggested that Abu Dhabi could once again be named as the venue for the negotiations.

"It will again be a proposal regarding the Middle East or America. We are ready. It does not matter to us whether we meet in Miami or in Abu Dhabi. The main thing is that there is a result," he emphasized.

As reported, in an interview with Bloomberg, Volodymyr Zelensky said that the next round of peace talks could be scheduled for February 17 or 18.
