Ukraine-U.S.-Russia talks
On Jan. 23 and 24, trilateral talks took place in Abu Dhabi between Ukraine, the United States and Russia on ending the war. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the talks were constructive, with the main focus on possible parameters for ending the war.
American officials believe the trilateral talks “exceeded expectations,” with the atmosphere in the room “very optimistic, positive and constructive.” According to media reports, no decisions have been reached on territories yet, but some progress was made in discussions on the military block of issues.
U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff said the talks would continue next week. According to Axios, the next meeting could take place on Feb. 1.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
