After weeks of high-level talks punctuated by frequent stops and starts, Russia and Ukraine have given the strongest signal yet they are willing to lay down arms – even if only in part.
The White House says it has brokered an agreement between the two countries to halt military activity over the Black Sea after its officials met separately with counterparts from Moscow and Kyiv in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh.
It's a different deal to the more ambitious one touted only weeks earlier, as BBC diplomatic correspondent James Landale points out, when the US and Ukraine held talks in Jeddah.
The new agreement is fraught with complications, including Russia's list of conditions. The Kremlin said it won't commit until sanctions are lifted and membership to the Swift payment network is reinstated, demands Trump says he is considering. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused Russia of lying about the terms of the agreement.
