What impact will the US-Russia talks in Riyadh have on Ukraine?

According to geopolitical analyst Anatol Lieven, these discussions 'definitely doesn't have a positive impact on Ukraine.' The exclusion of Ukrainian representatives from the Riyadh talks between US and Russian diplomats has raised significant concerns about Ukraine's sovereignty and its role in determining its own future. The situation is particularly alarming for Ukraine as it feels increasingly sidelined in peace negotiations that directly affect its territorial integrity and security interests. This diplomatic approach, where decisions are being made without Ukrainian input, threatens to undermine the country's position and potentially weaken international support for its defense against Russian aggression.
