Ukraine agreed to accept an immediate 30-day ceasefire in the conflict with Russia during talks with US officials in Saudi Arabia, the countries said in a joint statement.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he would now take the offer to the Russians, and that the ball is now in Moscow's court.
After more than eight hours of talks, the two sides issued a joint statement that said Ukraine was willing to accept the US proposal for an immediate, interim 30-day ceasefire that could be extended by mutual agreement of the parties, subject to acceptance and implementation by Russia.
"The United States will communicate to Russia that Russian reciprocity is the key to achieving peace," the statement said.
