Russia/Ukraine
Moscow wants to discuss territorial issues in the upcoming negotiations. Zelensky said security guarantees were the key to peace
This handout photo from by Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) released on February 4, 2026, shows the first day of the second round of trilateral talks between delegates from Russia, Ukraine, and the US which began in Abu Dhabi on February 4. Ukraine and Russia on February 5, 2026, began a second day of US-mediated talks in Abu Dhabi aimed at ending a war sparked by Moscow’s 2022 invasion of its pro-Western neighbour. The negotiations are the latest bid in diplomatic efforts to halt the fighting — Europe’s deadliest since World War II, with hundreds of thousands killed, millions forced to flee their homes and much of eastern and southern Ukraine left decimated.
