Kremlin adviser Yuri Ushakov stated that Europe should be included in peace talks regarding Ukraine, arguing that its position could be crucial. Ushakov also said that the United States has failed to pressure Kyiv into accepting a peace agreement. He referenced a 2025 meeting in Anchorage between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, suggesting that US administration efforts to force Kyiv's compliance had not yielded results. Russia is ready to resume trilateral peace talks with Ukraine and the US after November 4, according to Ushakov. Ukrainian negotiators have agreed to meet at a technical level in Abu Dhabi in early November.

## Disagreement on Trump-Putin meeting details

Digi 24 reported that Ushakov referenced a 2025 meeting in Anchorage between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. In.gr also reported Ushakov referencing a 2025 meeting in Anchorage between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. The Washington Times digest did not include details about specific meetings between Trump and Putin.

The left and centre-rated reports did not mention the specific date of November 4 for Russia's readiness to resume talks.

## How the sides framed it

### Left

- The left-rated report from in.gr led with the statement that Europe should be included in talks on a peaceful settlement in Ukraine. It carried the claim that the US has failed to pressure Kyiv into a peace agreement and quoted Ushakov saying it is not enough to talk only to Kyiv. The report also mentioned Russia's readiness to resume trilateral peace talks with Ukraine and the US after November 4 and that Ukrainian negotiators agreed to meet at a technical level in Abu Dhabi in early November.

### Centre

- The centre-rated report from Digi 24 led with Kremlin adviser Yuri Ushakov's statement that Europe should be included in discussions on a peace agreement in Ukraine. It included Ushakov's claim that the US has failed to pressure Kyiv into accepting a peace agreement and referenced a 2025 meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Anchorage. The report also stated Russia is ready to resume trilateral peace talks with Ukraine and the US after November 4, and that Ukrainian negotiators agreed to a technical meeting in Abu Dhabi in early November.

### Right

- The right-rated report from The Washington Times led with the statement that Europe's growing support for Ukraine earns it a larger role in upcoming negotiations, according to the Kremlin. The digest mentioned Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said that upcoming talks between the US, Ukraine, and Russia should include more of Europe.
