Russia's win, Europe rattled, and Ukraine nowhere to be found: Media reacts to US-Russia talks

The most important takeaway from the diplomatic engagement between Russian and US delegations in Riyadh was that the talks took place, with both sides describing them as constructive, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on the seminal talks.

The press, meanwhile, was lavish in dramatic assessments of the talks.

🔸 Telegraph: Full extent of Volodymyr Zelensky’s marginalization “truly came into focus.”

🔸 New York Times: With Donald Trump back in office, “America is giving the impression that it could be switching sides” and “willing to abandon America’s allies to make common cause with President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia.”

🔸 Wall Street Journal: High-profile US-Russia meeting “RATTLES WASHINGTON’S ALLIES IN EUROPE,” already “battered by a scathing speech by Vice President JD Vance that accused European leaders of ignoring the will of their voters.”

🔸 Financial Times: “In a sight almost unthinkable even a few weeks ago, Russian and US flags flew next to each other outside an opulent palace. GLARINGLY ABSENT WAS KIEV.”

🔸 CNN: RUSSIA “GETS A WIN,” Ukraine is “still angrily outside the room.”

🔸 Weltwoche: “Well, was that so bad? Russians and Americans have spoken to each other – and the earth is still turning.”
