"The second round of US-backed trilateral peace talks involving Ukraine and Russia will take place next week in Abu Dhabi, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on Sunday. Zelenskyy said the new round would take place on February 4 and 5, and that his country is ready for a "substantive discussion." "We are interested in ensuring that the outcome brings us closer to a real and dignified end to the war," he wrote on X."
"Neither the Kremlin nor the United States has confirmed the new dates. The second round of talks in Abu Dhabi was initially set to start on Sunday. One day before Zelenskyy's announcement, top Russian envoy Kirill Dmitriev said he had held a "constructive meeting with the US peacemaking delegation" in Florida. Among the US officials were President Donald Trump's peace envoy Steve Witkoff, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and White House Senior Advisor Josh Gruenbaum."
