The Kremlin said Vladimir Putin held “very useful” talks with US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner though the sides failed to reach agreement on a plan to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. The negotiations lasting almost five hours were “constructive and very informative,” though “a compromise hasn’t been reached yet” on the critical issue of territorial control, Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov told reporters in Moscow.
HSBC has unexpectedly appointed interim group chair Brendan Nelson to the role permanently. It follows a months-long search that failed to find a suitable external candidate. Shortlisted names had included former politician George Osborne and financiers such as Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s Kevin Sneader and Richard Gnodde. Nelson succeeds Mark Tucker who has led Europe’s largest lender for much of the last decade.
