Russian President Vladimir Putin has agreed to resume US-mediated peace talks with Ukraine and the United States as soon as next month, according to the Kremlin. The negotiations took place in St Petersburg, the ninth time that US envoy Steve Witkoff has met Putin in person. The talks began with Russia releasing Stephen Hubbard, a retired US school teacher who was held in Russia.
The latest talks come amid tensions, with Kyiv and its allies concerned that the US is backing away from Ukraine and possibly limiting intelligence sharing. The talks, which could begin on or after November 10, aim to guarantee Ukraine and Russia's security once the war ends. However, the outcome of the talks held in Oslo earlier in the week left the Kremlin less optimistic.
