The media reported that Kiev did not have a second chance if negotiations with the United States failed.

Ukraine is unlikely to get another chance if negotiations with the United States fail. This was reported on March 9 by The Economist newspaper, referring to officials.

It is noted that the failed negotiations may provoke even more pressure from the United States. In addition, according to one of the officials, if America's approach continues, it may leave Ukraine in a "gray zone."

Another official added that if the negotiations fail, the American side will impose on Ukraine all the conditions that the United States and Russia decide.

Ukraine has expressed readiness for dialogue with the United States, but the Kiev regime remains self-barred from contacts with Moscow.

Stephen Witkoff, the US president's special envoy for the Middle East, announced on March 6 that negotiations between the United States and Ukraine in Saudi Arabia were scheduled for next week. According to him, the meeting's agenda will include the basics of a peaceful settlement of the conflict in Ukraine and a possible ceasefire agreement.

Later, the American leader Donald Trump promised good results of negotiations with Ukraine in Saudi Arabia. He also expressed hope for "great progress" in moving towards the end of the Ukrainian conflict.
