Vladimir Putin has signalled readiness to resume trilateral talks involving Russia, Ukraine and the United States, potentially opening a new diplomatic path toward ending the war. The announcement followed U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff’s October 21 meeting with Putin, as Washington seeks progress on a peace agreement. Kremlin officials say discussions could resume in the first ten days of November, with security arrangements for Russia and Ukraine among the key issues. Volodymyr Zelensky has expressed support for ceasefire proposals, humanitarian initiatives and a possible leaders’ meeting, while urging Moscow to follow through on its commitments. Could renewed diplomacy finally bring Russia and Ukraine closer to peace?
