The US and Russia had a major summit in Riyadh to talk about peace and fortify their relationship as the Russia-Ukraine war nears its three-year milestone.

 

At a high-level summit in Riyadh on Wednesday, the United States and Russia decided to cooperate in putting an end to the conflict in Ukraine and fostering stronger diplomatic and commercial relations. The gathering takes place as the third anniversary of the crisis in Ukraine approaches.
Following the meeting, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio attested to this.
Following the discussion, Rubio told AP that the US and Russia had decided to concentrate on and accomplish three key objectives: reestablishing staffing at their respective embassies in both nations, assembling a high-level team to work toward peace negotiations in Ukraine, and investigating deeper ties and economic collaboration.

 

Lavrov added, “We not only listened, but also heard each other,” and described the discussion as “very useful.”

“There are indications that the American side has begun to comprehend our stance more clearly,” he continued.

There was no Ukrainian representative at the conference, which sought to advance peace in the nation. Under Biden’s leadership, Ukraine’s involvement in these discussions was essential, thus this represents a significant diplomatic shift in how the US has handled the war under the Trump administration. Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, added that since his nation did not take part in the negotiations, it will not accept the results.

 

Donald Trump’s remarks : 
Donald Trump also stated following the meeting that Russia wants to stop its war with Ukraine, which he described as “barbarianism.” “Russia wants to take action. The barbarism that is occurring there is something they wish to put an end to. Every week, thousands of soldiers are being slain.Numerous Koreans have been slain in addition to Russian and Ukrainian military. At a White House press conference, he declared, “We want to end it.”

He also argued that the “senseless” war would not have started if he had been president and placed some of the blame on Ukraine for not ending it sooner. “Oh, well, we weren’t invited,” I heard today. You’ve spent three years there, then. You ought to have stopped it after three years.You ought not to have initiated it. He was cited by the AP as saying, “You could have made a deal.”
