US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Trump's special envoys, Steve Witkoff and Keith Kellogg, are expected to meet with the foreign ministers and national security advisers of France, Germany, the UK and Ukraine ... plans for the talks are being finalized and could still change, the message says, citing anonymous sources.

According to the agency, the meeting is expected to be a follow-up to the April 17 meetings in Paris, where the United States shared proposals for a ceasefire and peace deal between Russia and Ukraine. The United States is willing to ease sanctions against Moscow and recognize Russia's control over Ukraine's Black Sea peninsula of Crimea as part of the deal, Bloomberg earlier reported.
