Envoys for U.S. President Donald Trump have arrived in Moscow to discuss U.S.-mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine. Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff attended negotiations in Abu Dhabi which ended Wednesday with an agreement on a prisoner exchange. But no significant progress was made on ending the nearly five-year conflict. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy welcomed the prisoner exchange but insisted Ukraine won't cede territory for peace. Russia and Ukraine remain divided on key issues including post-conflict security and European involvement in talks. Kushner aims to include European countries in future discussions.
