On the 13th, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia sees the USA as the main dialogue partner regarding the situation in Ukraine. During an interview with Russia's Channel One, Peskov mentioned that Ukraine will definitely participate in negotiations in some way, but a bilateral dialogue will take place between Russia and the USA. He emphasized that in the coming days and weeks, Russia and the USA will expand their working contacts, and both sides will work towards organizing a meeting between the leaders of the two countries. Peskov said it is still too early to discuss when President Putin of Russia and President Trump of the USA might visit each other, and it is necessary to "observe how the situation develops." He also noted that during their call, the presidents of Russia and the USA mentioned that Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, could possibly be the location for future meetings, but they did not discuss the fate of Ukrainian President Zelensky or whether Europe would be involved in resolving the Ukrainian conflict during their call.
