The question omits the year, but the rules specify an end date of December 31, 2026. Resolution depends on a consensus of credible reporting rather than an official government record or designated registry, meaning someone must judge whether news reports adequately confirm that an exchange occurred. The rules broadly define a talk as any in-person interaction or verbal communication by phone or video call, which means brief, informal, or passing exchanges could trigger resolution if widely reported, while unverified claims or disputed diplomatic encounters may require subjective interpretation.
