The Kremlin on Monday confirmed that peace talks with Ukraine and the United States in Abu Dhabi will resume later this week.
On Sunday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the second round of trilateral negotiations scheduled for this weekend would now take place in the UAE capital on Wednesday and Thursday.
“They were indeed originally planned for this past Sunday. But the three parties needed to further coordinate their schedules,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Monday.
“Now, on Wednesday and Thursday, the second round will indeed take place. It will be held in Abu Dhabi. We can confirm that,” Peskov added.
The latest meeting comes less than two weeks ahead of the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion. They are expected to focus on the crucial issue of territory, with neither side so far showing any sign of compromise.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia’s Prosecutor General’s Office has designated The Moscow Times as an “undesirable” organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a “foreign agent.”
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work “discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership.” We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It’s quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
