Delegations from Russia and Ukraine are considering the option of ending the war in the Eastern European country which has hit its fifth day.
Six days after Russian forces entered Ukraine, there are reports from the office of the Ukrainian president that the country wants a withdrawal of Vladamir Putin’ forces and an immediate ceasefire.
According to Russian negotiator, Vladimir Medinsky, Moscow wants to reach an agreement that was in the interests of both sides.
Meanwhile, Ukraine President, Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Russian troops to lay down their weapons, and called for the EU to grant Ukraine membership of the bloc immediately.
This happened before the meeting started.
