KIEV, March 18 (Xinhua) -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Tuesday that he sees prospects for a peaceful settlement of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

"I believe that in this war of Russia against Ukraine, there are prospects for a peaceful settlement," Zelensky said on X.

He stressed that Ukraine is committed to peace and called for efforts toward a diplomatic resolution.

"We need to keep looking each day for ways to reach a peace agreement. We need to meet with the Americans. We have a couple more ideas on how we can force this war to end," Zelensky said.

Earlier, Zelensky said that a meeting between the delegations of Ukraine, the United States and Russia, initially scheduled for last week, was postponed at the initiative of the United States.

The delegations previously held two rounds of talks in Abu Dhabi on Jan. 23-24 and Feb. 4-5, followed by another round in Geneva on Feb. 17-18.
