US actively considering SPR release and discussing with allies. Biden is not planning to speak with Putin, however personal sanctions against him are on the table. Earlier Russian press secretary Peskov said today that Putin was ready to talk with Zelensky if Ukraine agrees to compromise on Russia’s “red line issues” which includes the country's neutral status and removing certain weapons systems from its territory. Some experts believe that given the weak sanctions imposed on Russia by Western countries, the Ukrainian authorities may be willing to negotiate.
