Russia says it is ready to listen to proposals from US President-elect Donald Trump on ways to end the war in Ukraine.
The message comes from Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, who announces that Washington and Moscow “exchange signals via secret channels.
The State Department did not specify whether the contacts are with the current or incoming administration in Washington, but Ryabkov said Russia is willing to consider proposals as long as these “are ideas about how to move forward on issues of settlements, and not about how all possible aid must be able to be pumped to Kiev”.
Moscow thus stands by the announcement that areas occupied by the Russian military in Ukraine should not be included in the negotiations.

“A waste of time”, thinks Papua New Guinea’s foreign minister.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau does not intend to appear, Euronews reports, among other things.

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is also not participating, due to the head injury he suffered after a fall last week.
According to Euronews, leaders from, among others, Japan, Australia, Mexico and India are also missing from the participant list.
COP29 takes place between November 11 and 22.
A police officer in Värmland has been dismissed after being charged with several crimes, writes NWT.
The police have stolen eggs and caviar at Ica, stolen a colleague’s computer and been caught for speeding in a company car.
The public contacted the police and told them that the policeman “drove madly” the official car at high speeds.
At one point he drove 196 kilometers per hour on an 80-lane road.
According to the newspaper, he is the first Värmland police officer to be fired in the 2020s.
“It is clear that he grossly disregarded his obligations towards the employer,” management writes in a report to the personnel responsibility board.
A 75-year-old woman has disappeared from her home in Västervik during the morning.
– She seems to have disappeared on a dog walk. It was the accommodation that raised the alarm. She has disappeared before and they themselves have looked for her in places where she was then found, says police spokesperson Sara Andersson.
A picture of illness means that the woman can act confused. She has a miniature pinscher dog with her.
The police urge anyone who has seen the woman in the near future to call 112.
At 11.30 the police announced that the woman has been found and that she is doing well.

The high-ranking Hamas leaders who have been allowed to live in Qatar for many years must now leave the country, Qatari and American sources tell CNN, among others.
An American source accuses Hamas of rejecting any proposal for a ceasefire in which the hostages held in Gaza are released – and that “its leaders should no longer be welcome in the capital of an American partner country”.
One of those who lived in the capital Doha was the movement’s top leader Ismail Haniya, who was killed during a visit to Iran this summer. Another is Khaled Mashal, who headed Hamas’s so-called Politburo for many years and is accused of involvement in the October 7 attacks on Israel.
It is not clear when Hamas’ remaining leaders are expected to have left Qatar – or where they might be headed.
Qatar has played a major role in the protracted ceasefire negotiations in Gaza.
A man has fallen from a window at a hotel in central Örebro.
The man was taken to hospital after the fall. He was then awake and talkative. According to Närkes Allehanda, the man must have fallen from the second floor.

During the night, a man with a knife tried to stab a boy outside a school in Hallstahammar.
A passer-by called the police and raised the alarm at 00:55. The incident must have happened after some kind of argument between the man and the boy.
The young boy was not seriously injured.
Thanks to witness statements, the police were able to arrest a man who fits the description.
The man, who is 35 years old, has been arrested on suspicion of attempted aggravated assault.
Shortly before 11pm on Friday evening, the police were alerted to a youth party in Ängelholm.
– It was noisy and people at the party raised the alarm. When we got there, many people had left, but someone had lost their shoes, says police spokesperson Sara Andersson
