After separate US talks with Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Riyadh on 23 to 25 March, the White House said both sides agreed to ensure safe navigation and "eliminate the use of force" in the Black Sea and to implement the energy-strike halt, the Guardian reported. The Kremlin said the maritime arrangement would take effect only after sanctions on Russian agricultural exports and related banks were lifted, which Zelensky rejected as a weakening of Ukraine's position. Trump said the US was reviewing the Russian conditions.
