Putin Says Russia Willing to Resume Russia-US-Ukraine Talks

The signal here is the framing rather than the offer: a trilateral format with Washington at the table, and an agenda explicitly tied to post-conflict security guarantees for both sides. That is a substantive shift in emphasis from battlefield positioning toward a negotiated settlement architecture, and it lands on the broader risk backdrop that has shaped energy, defense and emerging-market flows since the conflict began. Whether the stated willingness translates into an actual resumed process — and whether Kyiv and Washington engage on that agenda — is the open question worth watching.
