Diplomatic turn: USA and Russia start negotiations on peace!

In the recent developments in the Ukraine conflict, Russia is adamantly behind its annexed areas. Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow emphasized that the territories belonging to the Russian Federation were an “inseparable part” of Russia according to the state's constitution. This declaration is made against the background of several hours of discussions between representatives of the USA and Russia in Istanbul, which aim to restore diplomatic relationships. These discussions took place at a time when President Vladimir Putin saw an approach to the USA as promising after Joe Biden and Donald Trump were in power, and want to negotiate the two countries about the Ukraine conflict and economic collaborations, such as Tagesschau.de reported.

The Foreign Minister Marco Rubio and Sergei Lawrow met in Riad, where they discussed the continuation of the dialogue about the Ukraine conflict and an improvement in trade relationships. Rubio announced that a high -ranking negotiation team should be formed to negotiate peace in Ukraine, whereby the conditions for an end to war must be acceptable for all sides. While Ukraine was excluded from the conversations, President Wolodymyr Selenskyj said the fear that his country could be ignored during possible peace talks, such as Kleinezeitung.at reported.

The current situation is shaped by a field of tension: Moscow has explained the annexation of the Crimea and four other Ukrainian regions, but Ukraine and international observers do not recognize this illegal acts. Peskow also explained that the progress of the relationship between the United States and Russia requires political will. Despite the ongoing tensions between the countries, there is an endeavor within the US government to advance the conflict through discussions and diplomacy, a turn that has appeared almost impossible in recent years.
