What was the outcome of the U.S.-Russia meeting in Saudi Arabia regarding Ukraine?

After more than four and a half hours of talks in Saudi Arabia, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that both the U.S. and Russia agreed to work together on a peace settlement for Ukraine. The discussions yielded commitments to explore diplomatic solutions to end the war in Ukraine. Beyond addressing the Ukraine conflict, both nations agreed to investigate what Rubio described as "incredible opportunities" to partner with Russians both geopolitically and economically.
