Agreement reached, US and Russia agree on safe navigation in the Black Sea

The White House has released further details from talks between the United States and Russia.

According to foreign media, it is reported that the US and Russia have agreed on safe navigation in the Black Sea, which has been the main focus of talks this week.

It is also learned that they have also agreed on measures that prohibit attacks on energy infrastructure in Russia and Ukraine.

Washington will also help restore Russia's access to global markets for agricultural and fertilizer exports, writes A2 CNN.

With Ukraine, the US said it has agreed that it will remain committed to the return of forcibly transferred Ukrainian children.

We recall that despite President Donald Trump's promise and efforts to end the war in Ukraine in a few days, this has not yet been achieved.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov says that all parties have agreed to "ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of merchant ships for military purposes in the Black Sea."

The full White House statement on Russia:

The United States and Russia have agreed to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of merchant ships for military purposes in the Black Sea.

The United States will help restore Russia's access to the world market for agricultural and fertilizer exports, reduce maritime insurance costs, and increase access to ports and payment systems for such transactions.

The United States and Russia agreed to develop measures to implement President Trump and President Putin's agreement to stop attacks on Russian and Ukrainian energy facilities.

The United States and Russia welcome the opening of offices in third countries with the aim of supporting the implementation of energy and maritime agreements.

The United States and Russia will continue to work toward achieving a lasting peace. The United States reiterated President Donald J. Trump’s imperative that the killing on both sides of the Russia-Ukraine conflict must stop as a necessary step toward achieving a lasting peace solution.

To this end, the United States will continue to facilitate negotiations between both parties to reach a peaceful solution, consistent with the agreements made in Riyadh.

The United States expresses gratitude to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for his leadership and hospitality in facilitating these important discussions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. (A2 Televizion)
