RUSSIA confirmed today it is resuming dialogue with the United States “on all parameters” as its forces intensified counter-attacks against Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region.
Kiev sent troops into the Russian border province last year, hoping to regain the initiative as it continues to retreat along most of its 600-mile front line within Ukraine. Russia has proved unwilling to divert troops from its main fronts to expel Ukraine from Kursk.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov said that Russia and the US were in “complete agreement” about the need to end the Ukraine war through negotiations, which began in Riyadh without Ukraine’s government present.
