> Presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said Russia is prepared to resume trilateral talks with the United States and Ukraine in mid-November. He said Putin conveyed this to U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff at a meeting in St. Petersburg. Ushakov described the main topic as a post-conflict security system for Russia and Ukraine, and said the EU and Kyiv’s new approaches offered little useful for resolving the Ukrainian crisis.
