The market transmission
Peace talks are a contingency priced into risk assets but talks alone do not move prices until a concrete framework or timeline emerges. The visit signals diplomatic engagement but does not alter the current state of the conflict, sanctions regimes, or commodity flows. Watch for any joint statement on terms or timeline.

What would change this
Diplomatic missions are frequent and most yield no agreement; the mere act of negotiation is not a repricing event. Only a breakthrough on terms or a shift in sanctions treatment would move markets meaningfully.
