Security advisers to the leaders of the United Kingdom, Germany and France have departed for Washington on an unannounced visit.
Source Welt, as reported by European Pravda Details Welt reported that the security adviser to German Chancellor, Jens Pltner, along with his UK and French counterparts, Jonathan Powell and Emmanuel Bonne, left for the US on 14 March.
They are expected to meet with Mike Waltz, US President Donald Trumps national security adviser, at the White House.
The previously unannounced trip was organised at short notice, Welt reports, and comes amid Europes noninvolvement in negotiations to end the war in Ukraine.
Background This week, Ukraine and the United States held talks in Saudi Arabia and agreed to a 30day ceasefire, contingent on Russias consent.
Following this, US Special Envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, met with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Moscow.
Trump described the talks as good and productive.
The United States has previously stated that Europes participation in negotiations to end Russias war against Ukraine is tied to the sanctions imposed on Moscow.
