Moscow and Washington are scrutinizing the results of U.S.-Russian discussions in Saudi Arabia, focusing on a potential naval ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, the Kremlin revealed on Tuesday. However, specific details on the dialogues remain undisclosed by officials from both countries.

The talks, which occurred in Riyadh on Monday, are perceived as a crucial component of President Donald Trump's strategy to end the prolonged conflict. Despite this, Ukraine and its European allies remain concerned that Trump might eventually concede to Russian demands, potentially jeopardizing their security.

The discussions, centered on safe navigation in the Black Sea, were not expected to lead to immediate outcomes. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov emphasized that only after thorough analysis will talks of any agreement be considered legitimate.
