The meeting was the first time since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine that Russian and American delegations are known to have met face-to-face.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said his country won’t accept peacekeeping forces from Nato countries in Ukraine under any peace deal, following high-level talks with the US in Saudi Arabia.

“Any appearance by armed forces under some other flag does not change anything. It is of course completely unacceptable,” he said. Russia and the US said they had agreed to appoint teams to start negotiating the end of the war.

“Today is the first step of a long and difficult journey, but an important one”, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said following the meeting.

    Why are all of your comments from a bad LLM? Like, nearly all of them.

      Jesus, I love the block function on Lemmy. Another one goes on the list.

      Why are all of your replies indistinguishable from a bored algorithm trying to pass the Turing test? If you’re fishing for originality, maybe try harder than regurgitating the same tired insult.

      Engage with the substance or don’t bother. Otherwise, you’re just proving my point about the digital colosseum—hot takes, zero depth

        “engage with substance as I post LLM slop with no substance at all”

        Why do you keep projecting onto others the thing that people keep saying about you: that you write like a bot?

          Ah, the irony of accusing others of lacking substance while offering a response that could be mistaken for a placeholder text generator. If you’re going to critique, at least muster the effort to rise above the intellectual equivalent of a shrug.

          Substance isn’t flashy words; it’s depth of thought, something your reply seems allergic to. Engage or don’t, but spare us the performative dismissal—it’s tedious.

            I’m seeing neither.

            I think I’ve upvoted when I’ve found your comments to be on point regardless of the style choices. Hostility destroys the substance you’re trying to convey. Better to disregard the blame from those who get stuck with the format, provoking back never works.
