Tuesday's meeting in Saudi Arabia is meant to pave the way for a summit between Trump and Putin
-
RUSSIA and the US agreed on Tuesday to start working toward ending the war in Ukraine and improving their diplomatic and economic ties, the two countries' top diplomats said after talks that reflected an extraordinary about-face in US foreign policy under President Donald Trump.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the two sides agreed broadly to pursue three goals: to restore staffing at their respective embassies in Washington and Moscow, to create a high-level team to support Ukraine peace talks and to explore closer relations and economic cooperation.
He stressed, however, that the talks—which were attended by his Russian counterpart, Sergey Lavrov, and other senior Russian and US officials—marked the beginning of a conversation, and more work needs to be done.
