Welcome to our continued live coverage, as the political discussions continue following the White House meeting between the American, Ukrainian and European leaders yesterday.<\/p>\n

If you’re just joining us, a key outcome is the possibility of direct meetings between Russia’s leader, Vladimir Putin, and Zelensky and possibly Trump. That comes after Trump made a call to Putin as the White House meeting was going on.<\/p>\n

But a noncommittal statement from Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov on Monday night said only that it was “worthwhile” to “explore the possibility of raising the level of representatives” from the Russian and Ukrainian delegations in negotiations.<\/p>\n

Another major talking point is on security guarantees. Trump says security guarantees for Ukraine would be “provided” by European countries with “coordination” by the US. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has told the BBC that the UK negotiators will shortly be arriving in Washington for further planning on this.<\/p>\n
