The Russia-Ukraine war: the diplomacy to avert it and the peace talks

Active · last development Oct 13, 2026: “Zelenskyy says Russia keeps striking Ukraine’s energy sites despite Trump ceasefire push”

Diplomacy failed to avert Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. The negotiations since have produced proposals, summits and limited pauses in fighting, but no overall settlement.[1][2] US-led talks expanded after Donald Trump returned to the White House in 2025, including a summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska and a disputed 28-point peace plan.[3][4][5] By mid-October 2026, an announced pause in attacks on energy infrastructure had also failed to stop the strikes.[7]

What this arc covers

The diplomacy to avert the war and the efforts to negotiate an end to it: the talks between the US, NATO and Russia in January 2022, the calls between Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin and the warnings of a decisive response, the mediation by France's Emmanuel Macron and Turkey's president, the talks between Russia and Ukraine in Belarus and Turkey after the invasion and Volodymyr Zelenskyy's offers to meet Putin, the prisoner exchanges and ceasefire offers of 2022 and 2023, Volodymyr Zelenskyy's conditions for peace and his search for backing for his peace plan, China's 2023 peace proposal, the talks Saudi Arabia hosted in 2023, the talks and multilateral summits of 2024 that failed to produce a settlement amid conflicting territorial and security demands, and the Trump administration's push since 2025, using aid as leverage and direct diplomacy with Kyiv and Moscow, to press for a ceasefire.

Background

In January 2022, Russia was massing troops near Ukraine while US and NATO officials held talks with Moscow. Russia said its demands for security guarantees had been ignored, and US President Joe Biden warned of a decisive response if it invaded.[8][9][10] French President Emmanuel Macron traveled between Moscow and Kyiv, and Biden and Vladimir Putin spoke by phone in February as US officials warned that an invasion could come at any time.[11][12][1] Coverage on this site begins in January 2022; the diplomacy of late 2021 appears only where later reporting describes it.

Read the full background

After the invasion, Russian and Ukrainian delegations met in Belarus and Turkey.[13][2] Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he was open to compromise on eastern Ukraine but would not give up territory there.[14][15] Prisoner exchanges continued, including a September 2022 swap that freed many of the fighters who had defended Mariupol's steel plant.[16]

Later diplomatic efforts took several forms. In January 2023, Putin ordered a 36-hour cease-fire for Orthodox Christmas, which Kyiv dismissed as "hypocrisy."[17] Saudi Arabia hosted talks in Jeddah that summer without Russia.[18] Ahead of a Swiss peace summit in June 2024, Putin offered a cease-fire if Ukraine withdrew from four regions Russia claimed to have annexed and abandoned its NATO bid. Kyiv rejected those terms. Russia did not attend the summit, and China stayed away.[19][20]

The US role changed after Trump returned to office. US and Russian officials met in Riyadh in February 2025 without Ukraine or European governments, agreeing to work toward ending the war and restoring relations.[3] Zelenskyy's White House meeting with Trump and Vice President JD Vance on February 28 ended in a public argument, and a planned minerals agreement was not signed.[21] In March, Ukraine accepted a US proposal for a 30-day cease-fire if Russia agreed. The United States resumed military aid and intelligence sharing it had paused after the White House dispute. Putin agreed only to a pause in attacks on energy infrastructure and repeated conditions for a broader truce, including an end to military aid for Ukraine.[22][23]

Russian and Ukrainian delegations returned to direct talks in Istanbul in May 2025. Putin did not attend despite Zelenskyy's invitation to meet him.[24] Trump and Putin's Alaska summit in August ended without a cease-fire.[4] A 28-point US plan in November alarmed Kyiv and European capitals because it reflected several Russian demands; Washington set a response deadline and threatened to withdraw support.[5] By late December, Zelenskyy said a revised US proposal included security guarantees lasting 15 years.[25]

Talks continued in 2026. Zelenskyy said in February that Washington wanted an agreement by early summer, while negotiations in Abu Dhabi had not resolved the dispute over territory in the Donbas.[26] Trump announced a three-day cease-fire and prisoner exchange around Russia's Victory Day in May.[27] At the end of August, US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met Putin at the Kremlin and prepared to visit Kyiv; Putin ordered a three-day pause in attacks on the capital ahead of that visit.[6]

On October 11, Trump announced an "energy ceasefire" without setting out its terms.[7] Zelenskyy said Ukraine was willing to stop attacking Russian energy infrastructure if Russia did the same.[28] Russia continued striking Ukrainian energy sites, and Ukraine resumed attacks on Russian energy targets, saying Moscow had never stopped.[7] No overall cease-fire or peace settlement had been reached by mid-October 2026.
