Details of talks between the U.S. and Russia about the war in Ukraine will not be released, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday.
The two nations met in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Monday, and a joint statement was expected to be released at 4 a.m. EDT Tuesday but never materialized.
Peskov explained "the content of these talks will not be made public for sure. This is something that should not be expected," and that "reports made [by the delegations] to their capitals are being analyzed, and only later it will be possible to speak of any understanding."
"There is understanding that contacts will continue, but there are no specifics yet," Peskov said. "It will be agreed upon.
Russian negotiator Grigory Karasin also spoke with TASS Tuesday, and expressed that the meetings held Monday "was an intense dialogue, not easy, but very useful for us and the Americans."
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky posted to social media Monday the "U.S. team" spoke with "representatives of Russia. After that, another meeting took place between the Ukrainian and American teams. I'm expecting a new report soon."

This is necessary because this is a CLOUD-BASED web site. The way it works is YOU READ . . . I GET BILLED for "Data Transfer."
Despite being politely asked for voluntary donations, few people ever bothered to donate. Then, despite being asked to click an ad within a story to generate ad revenue for this site, the majority of the general public couldn't be bothered with that, either. So there's no reason to give the general public free news anymore; they don't pull their own weight.
With tens-of-thousands of people reading stories here every day, the costs nearly drove the site out of business.
In order to be able to continue providing cutting-edge news, often hours or even DAYS before Drudge and most of the "mass-media" -- if they even cover it at all -- I need to be able to sustain this effort. To do that, I rely on folks like YOU contributing a pittance of about $1 a week; which is chump-change that you won't even miss! Yet that small amount makes all the difference in the world to the continued existence of this web site.
In the final analysis, knowledge is power. Getting information first, or info that other sources simply don't report, is usually well worth a few bucks in the long run.
