NEWSAR · AI

Recent diplomatic efforts involving Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff have yielded little hope for an imminent end to the war in Ukraine. Talks held in Oslo with European representatives were described as "good and constructive," and a trilateral meeting at the leaders' level was proposed. However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has indicated a lack of pressure to end the conflict and has shown no desire to meet with Zelensky unless it is in Moscow. The Kremlin suggested resuming technical-level trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi next month. Witkoff acknowledged that "important work to do" remains, while stating President Trump's commitment to ending the war.
