US envoys head to Moscow and Dublin following shortened Abu Dhabi talks

U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner arrived in Moscow to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin following the conclusion of trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi. The second day of negotiations between Ukrainian and Russian delegations wrapped up after just two hours, significantly shorter than the initial session.

Following their discussions in the Russian capital, the American mediators are scheduled to fly to Dublin to consult with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Despite the ongoing diplomatic efforts, Zelensky expressed skepticism regarding the negotiation outcomes, reiterating Ukraine's firm demands for robust security guarantees and full sovereignty over the Donbas region.
