US and Russian diplomats to meet in Riyadh for Ukraine talks
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio will meet his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov in on Tuesday for wide-ranging talks that are expected to focus on the war in Ukraine.
The Kremlin said the talks were to prepare for possible negotiations to resolve the Ukraine conflict and a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
Neither representatives from nor from European countries have been invited to the talks in Saudi Arabia.
Although Ukrainian President is also expected in Riyadh for talks with the Saudi leadership, he has stated that he does not recognize the legitimacy of the Rubio-Lavrov talks on Ukraine.
