JAKARTA - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy canceled a planned visit to Saudi Arabia on Wednesday, February 19. In Riyadh, US-Russia negotiations took place to end the war in Ukraine.

President Zelenskyy's visit to the kingdom is rescheduled for March 10.

Earlier this week a number of media, citing a presidential spokesman, Serhiy Nikiforov, told the president of Ukraine to visit Saudi Arabia on February 19 as part of his planned official visit.

"I don't know who will live there (Saudi Arabia) and who will leave. I don't care. I don't want coincidences, so I won't go to Saudi Arabia," he said.

Zelenskyy said it had contacted its Saudi counterpart and it had been agreed that the Ukrainian president's visit would take place on March 10.

"We hope to meet the US in Kyiv," Zelenskyy said while giving directions, when asked about his planned meeting with US representatives during his visit to Saudi Arabia.
