Kremlin Signals Russia-US Talks on Ukraine Not Immediate.
The Kremlin has signaled that the next round of Russia-U.S. talks on ending the war in Ukraine is unlikely to happen before the embassies of both countries resume normal operations, amid ongoing tensions between the two nations. The delay is partly due to concerns over U.S. President Donald Trump's stance on military aid to Ukraine and his administration's willingness to engage in dialogue with Russia. Meanwhile, Kyiv remains wary of Moscow's intentions, citing past betrayals by Russian leaders.
- The Kremlin's comments underscore the complexities of diplomatic relations between two nations that have been at odds for years, raising questions about the sincerity of Moscow's overtures towards a peace deal.
- Will Trump's administration be able to navigate the treacherous waters of international diplomacy, balancing competing interests and domestic politics in its quest for a Ukrainian ceasefire?
