Ukraine's Zelenskyy Says Progress in Peace Talks Hinges on US Approach to Russia

Zelensky said a major prisoner swap and little else came from U.S.-led talks, with a peace deal this year depending on Washington's approach.

  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Nov 11 that Kyiv hopes to achieve concrete results in peace talks with Russia this year, though success depends on how the United States approaches Moscow.
  • The US-led talks in Abu Dhabi produced a major prisoner swap, the first discussions since February, but yielded little else on ending the war.
  • Ukrainian negotiator David Arakhamia said Russia's delegation arrived with "strict directives" but produced "good momentum" toward a solution, while Vladimir Medinsky claimed a peace deal is closer.
  • US presidential envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will travel to Moscow tomorrow to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin, then fly to Dublin to consult with Zelensky.
  • Jared Kushner described the Abu Dhabi discussions as "a good first step," though he acknowledged no trust exists between the two sides as the United States shapes ongoing dialogue.
