Ukraine and Russia Continue Negotiations in Abu Dhabi

Ukraine and Russia are continuing negotiations in Abu Dhabi, focusing on the contentious territorial issue, but without any signs of compromise so far. Russian airstrikes have worsened the energy crisis in Ukraine. Kyiv is facing increasing pressure from the US to reach a peace agreement, while Moscow insists on Ukraine ceding the entire Donbas region. President Zelenskyy emphasized that Russia must be ready to end the war it started, and that the territorial issue is central to the talks. The negotiations will continue tomorrow, following a recent meeting between Zelenskyy and Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos, which did not yield any immediate results.
