U.S. and Ukrainian negotiators will hold talks in Miami on Saturday that a source familiar with the matter said could lay the groundwork for another meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Zelenskyy told reporters Friday that the U.S. and Ukrainian working groups would focus on bilateral documents and discuss a wide-ranging drone deal during the weekend meeting.
Ukraine, eager to capitalize on its expertise in defending against Russian drone attacks, is also working to finalize agreements with eight Middle Eastern countries as the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran escalates, the source said.
Zelenskyy told reporters Kyiv has deployed 228 specialists to help Middle Eastern countries with drone defense, and is working with Middle Eastern leaders to sign "serious agreements," but gave no details. The talks in Miami were initially planned to include Russian negotiators and take place in Abu Dhabi, with a focus on finding a settlement to the four-year-old war sparked by Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022.
The trilateral meeting in the United Arab Emirates was postponed after the outbreak of the Iran conflict on Feb. 28. The White House had no immediate comment on the weekend meeting.
Washington's negotiating team will be led by special envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, the source said.

I gotta be honest. That seems like kabuki theater. They not only share everything they have with us, we’ve been working in basic partnership with them since Biden.
Tolerating that penis piano playing prick is idiocy on steroids..
Since at least Trump’s first term when he had troops in Ukraine training them and arming them.
“Tolerating that penis piano playing prick is idiocy on steroids..”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The “penis Piano player” as you say is hated by the communists running the Kremlin because he is a Judeo-Christian and has same tough temperament as Winston Churchill : ‘WE SHALL NEVER SURRENDER!”
Zelensky is the opposite of a surrender monkey.
His country UKRAINE is fighting against THREE armies at once : Russian, North Korean, Chechen troops. Yes THREE against ONE! And Ukraine is taking back ground from the Russians every single day now. Talk about mental strength!
What a show of WILL and FORCE.
Therefore, I understand you are very jealous about Zelensky...
His truly SUCCESSFUL resistance against Islam NeoSovietism and Communism is truly remarkable - and many get the ZDS (Zelensky Derangement Syndrome because of it.
No particular evidence of special anti drone skills beyond the capability of releasing media reports claiming 120% of all drones fired by Russia were shot down.
Exactly.
So you know that he’s circumcised?
If Russian were successful, Russia would have overrun Ukraine like they ran over Hungary in the past.
Russia is just a cartel now, little more. Putin has wrecked his country.
Yeah, that penis piano player is Judeo-Christian.
No, he is a total corruptocrat responsible for the DEATHS of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians, but you go gurl.
“Churchill?”
You are smoking a Churchill size joint!
It’s way past time tor the Arab gulf countries to pony up and buy these. If they do not defend themselves, then we need to either take over their countries and oil or pull out and say eff em.
ROFL- Z leetle homo grifter trying to sell inferior quality drones is funny.
Pay back the millions stolen in the energy scam!
