Signs of hope after latest Russia-Ukraine talks

There is perhaps a glimmer of progress after Ukrainian and Russian negotiators met for several hours in Istanbul today. The diplomats said the talks might clear the way for a meeting between Presidents Zelenskyy and Putin. Just as the talks concluded, the Kremlin announced it will drastically reduce military activity around the capital Kyiv and in the Chernihiv area in northern Ukraine. Senior US officials tell CNN they see this as part of a significant shift in strategy, and they believe Russia plans to pull back forces in the north and focus on areas where it has made gains in the south and east.
