Russia says it hopes US-mediated talks with Ukraine will resume soon, according to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov. He links the expectation to efforts associated with US mediation after a renewed push over the weekend.
Both outlets report that no direct or mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine have taken place since February. They say President Donald Trump’s negotiators traveled to Moscow and then to Kyiv over the weekend, aiming to restart a diplomatic process. The sources do not provide details on when the talks would begin, what format they would follow, or whether Ukraine has agreed to resume discussions.
Overall, the reports converge on the same core facts: Russia’s statement of hope, the February gap in talks, and the weekend US visits to Russia and Ukraine. They mainly differ in wording and framing rather than the underlying information.
