Russia invaded Ukraine in 24th of February 2022, almost 3 years ago, after issuing demands that it should never join the NATO alliance because the crazy Vladimir Putin felt threathened of it, starting a war that has caused hundreds of thousands of military and civilian casualties. The duck USA president comments came after senior current USA and Russian diplomats met in Saudi Arabia for the first time in many years, to discuss ending the war. Ukraine and European nations were not represented at the talks even if they are more involved in it than Americans. The USA and Russia agreed to press ahead with negotiations to end the conflict.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said efforts to end the war must be "fair" and involve European countries including Turkey. Reeta Chakrabarti presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Sarah Smith, Tom Bateman, James Waterhouse, Steve Rosenberg and Jonathan Beale.
