Recent statements from Ukrainian presidential adviser Kyrylo Budanov indicate expectations of technical talks or revived trilateral negotiations involving Russia, Ukraine, and the U.S. as early as September 2026, following a pause since February. U.S. briefings on Moscow meetings, including CIA Director visits, have been shared with Kyiv, while Russia maintains working contacts with Washington but publicly describes the process as on a “deep pause” amid ongoing frontline advances and insistence on Ukrainian withdrawal from Donbas. These signals of possible direct or mediated meetings contrast with stalled prior rounds and persistent gaps on territory and security guarantees, shaping trader assessments of near-term diplomatic activity.
