  "account": "Russian spokesman Dmitry Peskov affirmed on Thursday that Russia concurs with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's assessment that the Ukraine conflict has reached a stalemate. According to Russian news outlets, Peskov made this statement during a gathering of ex-Soviet leaders in Turkmenistan. RIA News reported Peskov as stating that resolving the crisis is a matter for diplomats to address. He emphasized that the essence of diplomacy lies in discovering a path towards peace. Peskov explained that diplomacy's skill is in discovering a pathway that leads to a peaceful resolution.\n\nUS diplomats Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are scheduled to meet Ukrainian representatives in Miami on Friday to discuss new strategies and possibly develop a joint proposal for ending the war. When asked if a trilateral summit involving Putin, Zelenskiy, and Trump was imminent, Peskov dismissed the idea, reaffirming Russia's stance that a resolution must be comprehensive and long-term, not temporary. The Kremlin spokesman stated that Russia is not seeking temporary measures like a limited ceasefire. Instead, Russia advocates for a full-scale solution to the conflict that can ensure stability for many years, potentially even decades, according to the news agencies.",
