Washington\u2019s focus has largely moved \u200caway from Ukraine amid \u200cthe war in Iran.<br \/>\nThe source \u200cdid not provide additional details. The US-brokered talks are deadlocked over Ukraine\u2019s eastern Donetsk region. Moscow demands Kyiv pull troops back from parts of the region it has failed to capture in its four-year full-scale invasion. Ukraine says it will not cede land that it controls.<br \/>\nThe last round \u200cof trilateral Ukraine-Russia talks \u200cinvolving US representatives took place in February. Ukrainian and Russian \u200crepresentatives have only had separate talks \u200cwith the US team since.<br \/>\nUS President Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin held a call on April 29 discussing a potential ceasefire.<br \/>\nRussia announced a \u200cceasefire for May 8 to 9, when it celebrates the Soviet Union\u2019s victory over Nazi Germany and holds a military parade in Moscow, an event of high significance for the Kremlin.<br \/>\nUkraine said Russia only wanted a ceasefire to protect its parade, as it worries about Ukrainian drone attacks, and offered an open-ended ceasefire starting on May 6.<br \/>\nNeither side agreed to the proposals. Russia threatened to strike central Kyiv if Ukraine attacked Moscow. Kyiv accused Russia of violating the ceasefire, saying it would mirror Russia\u2019s actions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KYIV Ukraine\u2019s top negotiator, Rustem Umerov, has arrived in Miami for a meeting with US representatives, a source said, as peace talks on ending Russia\u2019s war in Ukraine have stalled in recent months.
