Top diplomats from the United States and Russia met in Saudi Arabia to discuss ways to possibly end the war in Ukraine and improve relations between Washington and Moscow. Participants included U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was not invited to attend and has said he won’t recognize a peace deal negotiated without Ukraine. Zelensky was scheduled to be in Saudi Arabia tomorrow but has since cancelled. The meeting comes less than a week after President Trump held a 90-minute call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
