The US and Russia have agreed to form a high-level team to negotiate a peace settlement in Ukraine, restore embassy staffing, and promote economic cooperation. Talks between officials took place in Saudi Arabia, where both sides expressed a willingness to advance relations and address issues of common interest. While no date has been set for a meeting between Putin and Trump, both countries plan to appoint representatives for regular consultations on Ukraine.
