Abu Dhabi Talks Make Limited Progress on Ukraine Peace Deal

Russian and Ukrainian officials held US-brokered peace talks in Abu Dhabi, led by US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.

The talks lasted two days. They agreed on a large prisoner exchange.

But peace talks made little progress. David Arakhamia said Russia had strict orders.

“Very, very strict directives,” said David Arakhamia.

This made agreement difficult. He saw big progress on Ukraine’s security guarantees.

Land differences remained. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio wants Europe in future talks.

European representatives met near the talks. They may not have joined them directly.

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner led the talks.
