The summit comes after two days of negotiations in Florida between Ukrainian and US officials, including Witkoff and Kushner, aimed at refining a US-backed peace plan which had been viewed as favourable to Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky described the talks as "constructive", but said there are "some tough issues that still have to be worked through".
