Ukraine and Russia have agreed to a large-scale prisoner exchange following talks in Abu Dhabi, while US envoys are preparing to travel to Moscow and Dublin for separate meetings with the leaders of the two countries.

US President Donald Trump’s envoys will travel to Moscow on Thursday to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin, before heading to Dublin to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Jared Kushner announced after the Abu Dhabi talks.

Meanwhile, Russia’s chief negotiator in Abu Dhabi, historian Vladimir Medinsky, said discussions on ending Russia’s war against Ukraine would continue.

“Dialogue will undoubtedly continue,” Medinsky said.

However, he ruled out the prospect of talks between Moscow and European countries allied with Kyiv, questioning their role in the process.

He claimed that Russia had not received any peace initiative or specific proposal from European countries concerning the war, making it difficult to determine what would be discussed with them.
