LOS ANGELES, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) — U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance said Sunday that Russia has made "significant concessions" in talks aimed at ending the war with Ukraine.

In an interview with NBC News, J.D. Vance rejected the idea that Moscow is manipulating US President Donald Trump, saying the Russians are being “flexible” on some of their demands.

“I think the Russians have made significant concessions to President Trump for the first time in three and a half years of this conflict,” J.D. Vance said. “They were really willing to be flexible on some of their core demands. They were talking about what it would take to end the war.”

"Of course, they have not yet reached a full agreement, otherwise the war would be over. But we are participating in this diplomatic process in good faith," he added.

“We’re going to continue to do what we have to do to get this done,” J.D. Vance said. “I don’t think it’s going to happen overnight.”

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Friday that a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is not planned.

In recent weeks, there has been intense diplomatic effort to end the conflict in Ukraine. Following a meeting between Trump and Putin in the US state of Alaska, Trump held talks with Zelensky and European leaders on Monday. –0–

CANBERRA, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) — Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Monday his government will continue to be a "strong advocate" on the world stage for a "two-state solution" to the Middle East conflict.

Speaking on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) on Monday morning, Mr Albanese said Australia would continue to advocate in international forums for a "two-state solution" in which Palestine and Israel could live "side by side in peace and security".

“We have consistently advocated, both directly to the Israeli government and by voting in international forums, for aid to be allowed into Gaza, consistently advocated for a ceasefire, the release of hostages and the disarmament of Hamas,” he said.

Earlier in August, the Prime Minister announced that Australia would join Canada, France and the UK in formally recognising Palestinian statehood at the 80th session of the UN General Assembly in September.

Asked on Monday whether he had discussed recognizing Palestine with governments of neighboring Pacific nations, including New Zealand, E. Albanese said they would make their own decisions as sovereign states. -0-
