"We've agreed that the next round begins next Sunday in Abu Dhabi again," the official told reporters, calling the decision to hold further talks a "good sign" and adding that "a lot of work" was done over two days of negotiations in the Emirati capital. Ukrainian and Russian delegations held their first direct talks in months in Abu Dhabi even as Russia launched a barrage of drones and missiles during the discussions. Trump met Ukrainian President Zelensky at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday and US envoy Steve Witkoff later held talks with President Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin. The war has killed tens of thousands, displaced millions and devastated large swathes of Ukraine.
