BERLIN (dpa-AFX) – After talks with a US delegation in Berlin, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj has left the Chancellery. A photographer from the German Press Agency observed this in the evening. German government circles also said that Zelensky had left the Chancellery after around five and a half hours. It was initially unclear whether the negotiations between Americans and Ukrainians were ongoing.

Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) had already left the government headquarters a little earlier, it was said. It initially remained unclear whether and in what format the talks would continue on Monday. It continues to be about the central questions of the cessions of territory demanded by Russia, the security guarantees for Kiev and the question of the use of the Russian Central Bank’s assets frozen in the EU./ast/DP/zb
