The United States and Russia engaged in 12-hour discussions in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, focusing on a potential ceasefire in Ukraine. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that the detailed content of these technical talks will remain confidential, with analyses ongoing in both capitals. The negotiations addressed a proposed 30-day ceasefire, contingent upon mutual agreement, and the cessation of long-range attacks on critical infrastructure. Despite these talks, cross-border strikes have persisted, with Ukraine's air force reporting the interception of numerous Russian drones and missiles. Both nations aim to issue a joint statement on the negotiations, reflecting a cautious step toward de-escalation in the region.
