Russia expects US to brief us about Saudi Arabia meeting on Ukraine: Russia. Ukraine prepared a large-scale attack of its drones on Russia ahead of the US and Ukrainian delegations in Saudi Arabia. 337 Ukrainian drones were shot down over Russian regions in the early hours on Tuesday, including 91 in the Moscow Region. The meeting presents a chance to mend the relations between Kyiv and Washington after a heated exchange between Ukrainian President Zelensky and US President Donald Trump at the Oval Office in February. The US delegation is led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz. The Ukrainian delegation is said to include Yermak, Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, Defence Minister Rustem Umerov, and Zelenky’s Deputy Chief of Staff Pavlo Palisa. The French and the British have been very supportive along the way over the last week as well and very helpful, so we are hopeful we will have good meetings tomorrow,\” Rubio added further in an interview with Ukrainian media outlet The Kyiv Independent.
