> U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reportedly met Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov on the sidelines of the G20 summit to discuss a Washington-backed 28-point peace plan for Ukraine. A Ukrainian official said Kyiv knew “nothing about this meeting.” It remains unclear whether the plan matches one described by President Volodymyr Zelensky, while the Kremlin has rejected a ceasefire and a Donbas buffer zone.
