Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said November would offer a test of Russia’s stated interest in peace talks, describing Vladimir Putin’s recent comments as potentially tactical, TSN reported.
TSN said Zelenskyy suggested Moscow could be trying to prevent further deterioration in relations with the United States, or using negotiation rhetoric with U.S. elections in view. He pointed to the coming month as a period when Russia’s conduct could be weighed against its public statements.
Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov said Russia was ready to resume trilateral talks among Russia, Ukraine and the United States after Nov. 4. His statement gave a readiness window but did not set a meeting date or announce peace terms, as described in EconoTimes’ earlier report on the proposed talks.
TASS previously reported that Ushakov expected an initial session to be exploratory and identified post-conflict security arrangements as a main topic. No specific date for the next round has been announced.
