Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov announced today that representatives from Russia and the United States are scheduled to meet once again in two weeks.
This upcoming dialogue follows their initial discussions aimed at addressing the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, which has persisted for nearly three years.
The forthcoming meeting will take place in a neutral third country, with the specific location yet to be confirmed.
Ryabkov emphasized that both nations have reached a principled agreement to engage in further consultations, focusing on a comprehensive resolution to the myriad of diplomatic challenges, often referred to as “irritants,” that have complicated their bilateral relations.
The first round of talks, held on Tuesday, marked a crucial step towards restoring communication between Moscow and Washington.
The discussions underscored a mutual interest in finding pathways to conclude the protracted war in Ukraine, which has had far-reaching implications for international relations and security.
As the world watches closely, the upcoming meeting will be pivotal in shaping the future trajectory of US-Russia relations and the potential for peace in Ukraine.
Both parties remain committed to navigating the complexities of their ties, hoping to foster a more stable and cooperative environment in the region.
