Russia has expressed that while quick resolutions with the U.S. are not expected, there is potential for progress if both sides are willing.
This statement was made by Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitri Peskov during a meeting between Russian and U.S. diplomats in Istanbul.
Peskov outlined that agreements reached in Riyadh were further developed during the Istanbul talks. Diplomats are working to finalize the understanding that emerged from the phone call between Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, as well as the agreements made in Riyadh between high-ranking Russian and U.S. delegations.
“There are basic agreements to this effect which had been achieved in Riyadh. Today another meeting on expert level took place in Istanbul. Our diplomats are working to develop the understanding which has been reached during the phone call between the two presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, and those agreements achieved in Riyadh between the high-ranking delegations of Russia and U.S.A. Probably, there is no need to run ahead yet. The information on the outcome of the talks will be provided, one way or another,” Peskov said.
In addition to the progress made on these agreements, Peskov also discussed potential areas for future cooperation between Russia and the U.S. One of these areas could be the joint development of natural resources in the Arctic, although he emphasized that no substantive talks have yet taken place on this matter.
He further commented on the current state of U.S. leadership, highlighting a significant shift in President Trump's approach. “What we see is that President Trump speaks himself and is ready to listen to the others. This is very important and this is what differs dramatically from the previous Washington administration,” Peskov noted.
As the discussions continue, Russia remains cautiously optimistic about the potential for further progress, even as both sides work through the complexities of their relationship.
