Zelenskyy on Tuesday ruled out ceding territory to Russia in any deal before talks set for Wednesday in London among U.S., European and Ukrainian officials. “There is nothing to talk about. It is our land, the land of the Ukrainian people,” Zelenskyy said.

Talks between the U.S., Ukraine and European officials to discuss ending Russia's war in Ukraine faltered as Secretary of State Marco Rubio abruptly cancelled his trip to London.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s last-minute decision to cancel means there will be no foreign ministers meeting in London for Ukraine peace talks, but presidential envoy Steve Witkoff will still go to Moscow.
