Kremlin says main Ukraine issues will be discussed in Geneva talks, including territory
The talks focus on territorial control of Donbas and broader political, military, and economic issues amid U.S. pressure on Kyiv and Moscow’s demand for concessions.
- On Feb 16, the Kremlin said the main issues, including sensitive territory questions, will be discussed in Geneva this week with Russia, Ukraine and the United States on Tuesday and Wednesday.
- Facing mounting U.S. pressure, Kyiv is urged to strike a deal while Moscow demands ceding the entirety of the Donbas region.
- Vladimir Medinsky, an aide to President Vladimir Putin, will lead the Russian delegation, and military intelligence chief Igor Kostyukov will also participate.
- Despite the planned talks, Russia and Ukraine remain far apart on territory, control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, and Western troops, while U.S. President Donald Trump calls the conflict a senseless "bloodbath".
- The Kremlin said 'This time, the idea is to discuss a broader range of issues, including, in fact, the main ones. The main issues concern both the territories and everything else related to the demands we have put forward', and Kirill Dmitriev will join an economic working group.
