President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Sunday that Kiev is ready for the next round of trilateral peace talks to end Russia's full-scale occupation of Ukraine, but that it is up to Washington and Moscow to decide where and when they will meet.

Zelenskyy said that Washington had proposed meeting in the US next week, but that Russia did not want to meet there.

"We are waiting for an answer from the Americans. Either they will change the place where we will meet, or the Russians must confirm (a meeting in) the US," Zelenskyy said at a press conference on Saturday.

"We are not blocking any of these initiatives. We want a trilateral meeting to take place."

Peace talks had begun in the United Arab Emirates earlier this year, but were suspended after war with Iran erupted following joint US-Israeli attacks on Iran in late February.

As Iran began launching retaliatory attacks, the conflict quickly spread across the Middle East, which Zelenskyy feared could distract global attention from Russia's war against Ukraine.
