KYIV, Dec 18 (Bernama-Xinhua) -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Thursday that a Ukrainian delegation is en route to the United States to continue peace negotiations, Xinhua reported.
The talks with the US negotiating team are set to take place on Friday and Saturday, with European representatives also expected to participate, Zelensky told the Interfax-Ukraine news agency.
He highlighted that key points of contention between Ukraine and the US include territorial issues and the use of frozen Russian assets.
Zelensky said that, should a peace agreement be reached in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Ukraine plans to use the frozen assets for reconstruction efforts. However, if hostilities persist, the funds may be directed towards supporting the Ukrainian military, bolstering defence production, and purchasing US-made air defence missiles, he added.
