The talks came as Washington and Kyiv sought to heal a rift following Trump’s announcement of a diesel deal with Russia and pressure on Zelensky to end the war.
“Ukraine brought forward new ideas and proposals, which were discussed in detail,” the official said on condition of anonymity after the Oslo talks.
“The parties made meaningful progress in aligning on a coordinated approach to engaging Russia and advancing the diplomatic process.”
