The United States is pressing Moscow and Kyiv to resolve their conflict in Ukraine promptly, aiming for a solution before summer, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy announced. The statement follows U.S.-brokered meetings between Ukraine and Russia in Abu Dhabi, with further discussions proposed for Miami.
Zelenskiy criticized Russia for overnight strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and highlighted the necessity of depriving Moscow of the ability to use cold weather strategically. Despite ongoing negotiations, no significant agreements have been reached, although both parties agreed to a prisoner exchange.
