此代表團由美國國務卿馬爾科·盧比奧（Marco Rubio）、國家安全顧問邁克·沃爾茨（Mike

，這是繼川普與烏克蘭總統澤倫斯基和俄羅斯總統普丁進行電話會談後的後續行動。
川普確認了這一努力，並表示美方正在積極促進和平，同時保證澤倫斯基將會參與談判。
關於烏克蘭在談判中的角色引發了關注，歐洲官員強調基輔必須參與其中川普重申澤倫斯基

Trump confirms Zelensky will take part in Ukraine peace talks as US, Russia prep
are Saudi meeting

A team of advisers to U.S. President Donald Trump is set to meet with Russian of
ficials next week in Saudi Arabia to begin negotiations aimed at ending the war
in Ukraine, two U.S. government officials familiar with the matter told CBS News
.
The delegation, led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Adviser
Mike Waltz, and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, will represent Trump in discus
sions following his recent phone calls with President Volodymyr Zelensky and Rus
sian President Vladimir Putin.
Trump confirmed the efforts, adding that the U.S. is working hard to facilitate
peace and assuring that Zelensky will be involved in the talks.
Concerns have been raised about Ukraine's role in the negotiations, with Europea
n officials emphasizing that Kyiv must not be sidelined. Trump reaffirmed that Z
elensky would have a say in the process and mentioned the possibility of allowin
g European nations to purchase U.S.-made weapons for Ukraine.
However, he expressed skepticism about Zelensky’s warning that Russia could esc
alate its war beyond Ukraine if the U.S. withdraws from NATO. Rubio, speaking on
CBS' "Face the Nation," on Feb. 16 said Trump would quickly determine whether R
ussia’s interest in peace is genuine or merely a tactic to buy time.
Discussions between the U.S. and Russia have already begun, with Rubio speaking
to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov over the weekend, according to CBS.
The potential terms of an agreement remain unclear. Defense Secretary Pete Hegse
th has said that "everything is on the table" but suggested Ukraine’s NATO memb
ership is unlikely. Trump echoed this sentiment, saying that Russia has long opp
osed Ukraine joining the alliance and implying that this stance would not change
. Hegseth also cast doubt on Ukraine's ability to reclaim all its territory, inc
luding Crimea, which Russia annexed in 2014.
Further high-level discussions are expected, with Trump confirming that he plans
to meet with Putin in Saudi Arabia "very soon," though he did not specify a dat
