Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha met with U.S. Senator Marco Rubio and Senator Lindsey Graham in Antalya on May 14—just one day before Ukraine is set to meet Russia for direct peace talks in Türkiye.
Sybiha shared details from the meeting on X, where he said they discussed President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s vision for peace and coordinated strategies ahead of the critical meeting in Istanbul.
“We discussed in detail the logic of further steps and shared our approaches,” Sybiha posted.

In his message, Sybiha made it clear that Ukraine has taken steps toward a peaceful solution—but that it’s now Russia’s turn to do the same.
