macro Rubio, Secretary of State for the United States, speaking with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday 2 September 2022, discussed the next steps to follow up on meetings in Saudi Arabia. The two phases of the deal are expected to involve strengthening diplomatic relations and promoting economic cooperation, with a focus on sustainable development and dealing with challenges in the region.

On Thursday evening, American Envoy Steve Witkoff met President Putin in Moscow to propose a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine’s conflict against Russia. Putin’s declaration of major reservations about the proposed ceasefire indicates his concerns about the potential for the conflict to escalate. This decision could have significant diplomatic implications, as it could impact both sides of the deal and their ability to communicate with other countries.

Lavrov and Rubio, who have previously reaffirmed their commitment to restoring direct ties between the US and Russia, have agreed to continue their efforts. Rubio has expressed hope that the 30-day ceasefire will aid in stabilizing relations by fostering trust between the two nations and enhancing mutual understanding. However, Putin’s approval appears to stem from his own fear of an intense conflict returning to the conflict zones.
