Russian President Vladimir Putin informed US President Donald Trump during a phone call that immediate peace talks with Ukraine are unlikely due to recent drone attacks on Moscow. Putin’s foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov stated that these attacks disrupted potential negotiations, though Russia remains open to resuming discussions after assessing the situation. Additionally, Trump announced a deal for Russia to supply diesel fuel to the US and global markets, which was criticized by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European allies as aiding Putin's war efforts against Ukraine.

Story summary
On October 10, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke to US President Donald Trump during a phone call where Putin claimed that recent drone attacks by Ukraine had disrupted potential peace talks. Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov stated that Ukrainian drones struck Moscow and other cities, including polling stations, on the day of Russia's parliamentary elections last month. As a result, Putin argued that an immediate resumption of trilateral negotiations between Russia, Ukraine, and the US was unlikely due to these attacks. The situation highlights the ongoing challenges in resolving Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022. Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that the conflict remains at a dangerous stalemate.

“By launching a large-scale drone attack on Moscow, other cities and polling stations on the most important day of the elections, and by targeting some people involved in organising the elections, the Kyiv regime has, in reality, interrupted the possibility of an immediate resumption of the negotiation process,” said Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov about the call with Trump.
