Russian President Reaffirms Ukraine Territorial and NATO Demands

Russian President Vladimir Putin reaffirmed Russia's unwavering territorial demands in Ukraine and ultimatums regarding NATO's dismantling during trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi. He remains unwilling to compromise on claims over parts of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, and Kherson oblasts, or to accept a demilitarized zone. This signals continued inflexibility in potential peace negotiations.
