[Tomorrow, US-Russia Istanbul meeting, but no discussion on Ukraine issue]
On Thursday, April 10, the US and Russia will hold another round of talks, with representatives from both sides meeting in Istanbul to discuss several issues.
America's State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruhl said at a press briefing that the war issue between Russia and Ukraine would not be included on the agenda, and both sides would focus on discussing the restoration of embassy operations.
Bruhl emphasized, "The agenda does not involve any political or security issues, and the Ukraine issue is completely out of the scope of discussion. This meeting will only focus on the normal operation of the two countries' embassies."
She stated that the goal of this meeting was not to promote the full normalization of US-Russia relations; this objective could only be achieved after peace was reached between Ukraine and Russia.
