Surprise, surprise: Russia-Ukraine talks yield no peace breakthrough
The negotiations have largely become political theater for an audience comprising Donald Trump.

Two days of 'difficult' Ukraine talks end with no breakthrough
Did anyone really think there would be a breakthrough? Putin is just playing for time and for the US regime to try to force Ukraine to surrender.
