> U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said a roadmap for restarting direct Russia–Ukraine talks could take shape within weeks. He described recent meetings by U.S. mediators in Moscow and Kyiv as substantive, but said both sides still have bright red lines. Rubio said he was neither overly optimistic nor pessimistic, while other reports called serious negotiations unlikely before next year.
