New Trilateral Talks Agreed Between US, Russia, and Ukraine, Including European Partners, Following Prisoner Exchange Agreement

Following two days of US-mediated talks in Abu Dhabi, US special envoy Steve Witkoff announced that a new round of trilateral talks involving the United States, Russia, Ukraine, and European partners has been agreed upon. This diplomatic development comes after an agreement was reached for a major humanitarian prisoner exchange between Russia and Ukraine. US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff are scheduled to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Dublin to further these discussions. European leaders, however, have rejected Russia's push to overhaul the continent's security architecture as part of these peace talks.
