The meeting in Riyadh aims to discuss the terms of a ceasefire between Kyiv and Moscow. The delegations from Ukraine and the USA continued discussions that had started earlier, aiming to find a common position on the conflict with Russia.

This time, the talks lasted just an hour - as reported by the public Ukrainian broadcaster Suspilne.

Previously, a source from the Ukrainian delegation, cited by AFP, emphasized that "We continue to work with the Americans."

Meanwhile, the Kremlin announced that the content of the negotiations in Riyadh would not be disclosed as they are technical consultations, according to Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov. The Russian delegation left the capital of Saudi Arabia on Tuesday after nearly 12 hours of talks with the US delegation.

According to Bloomberg, citing a well-informed source, the talks involved a 30-day suspension of attacks on energy facilities and military operations in the Black Sea.

Last week, the Russians attacked residential districts of the city of Kropyvnytskyi in central Ukraine with drones. "Simply hell" was a description seen on one of the channels on Telegram. On March 20, Ukrainian authorities reported a massive Russian attack on Odessa. On March 23, in another night attack on Ukraine, Russia used 147 drones.
