This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Vatican hosts an official meeting between representatives of Russia and Ukraine to negotiate a ceasefire or peace agreement by August 31, 2025, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". The meeting must involve direct and in person participation of representatives from both Russia and Ukraine and be explicitly aimed at discussing a ceasefire or peace agreement in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict. Unofficial discussions, humanitarian negotiations, or meetings not physically hosted in the Vatican will not qualify. The resolution source will be a consensus of credible media reporting confirming the meeting will suffice.
