US State Dept: Ukraine expressed readiness around proposals for 30-day ceasefire

The euro is at the highs of the day and indications around peace in Ukraine might be helping as headlines from the State Department cross:

  • Ukraine expressed readiness to accept the US proposal to enact an immediate interim 30-day ceasefire
  • At Saudi meeting the US and Ukraine took important steps towards peace
  • US will immediately lift the pause on intelligence sharing and resume security assistance to Ukraine
  • Agreed to conclude minerals deal as soon as possible
  • Both delegations agreed to name their negotiating teams

We’re also seeing a rebound in risk assets at the moment, though the size of the move is larger than you would expect on a Ukraine headline that was largely expected.
