Russian Foreign Minister Says US Talks on Ukraine Peace StalledUS Talks on Ukraine Peace Stalled
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Wednesday that despite ongoing dialogue with the United States, substantive progress on Ukraine and peace negotiations has stalled, with talks producing no concrete results.
Lavrov told Russian media that while regular communication continues between the two countries, "nothing is happening in real life" on the core issues.
The statement underscores the frozen state of diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict.
- Lavrov joined the Soviet Foreign Ministry in 1972 after studying in Sri Lanka and Indonesia.
- The U.S.-Russia Strategic Stability Dialogue began in 2021 to address arms control amid rising tensions.
Russia-Ukraine War

Ukrainian forces launched one of their largest drone attacks on June 26, striking 12 Russian regions and hitting key energy targets, while Russia continues massive retaliatory bombardments that kill civilians and destroy infrastructure.
