The long, slow road to a ceasefire, with no guarantee of success

After three days of talks in Saudi Arabia, at last some progress.
Two separate texts outlining agreements between the US and Russia, and the US and Ukraine.
There were some differences but much was the same. All sides agreed to “to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes in the Black Sea”.
They also agreed “to develop measures for implementing… the agreement to ban strikes against energy facilities of Russia and Ukraine”.
President Zelensky regretted there was no explicit ban on attacks on civilian infrastructure but sounded broadly content.
