What was the outcome of the diplomatic talks between U.S. and Russian officials regarding Ukraine?

Following Saudi-mediated talks, Russian officials declared the negotiations had gone 'pretty well,' though they indicated a Putin-Trump meeting appears unlikely in the near term. The Kremlin emphasized that Putin would determine when further contact on Ukraine would begin, with conditions for future discussions being addressed during the talks. Notably, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was excluded from these discussions despite their potential to determine his nation's fate. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy was in Ankara meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
