U.S. envoys held talks about the fighting in Ukraine with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin. The meeting follows two days of U.S.-mediated negotiations between Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Abu Dhabi. The talks resulted in an agreement on a large prisoner exchange, though no breakthrough was made in ending the nearly 5-year-old full-scale conflict. The U.S. envoys aims to involve Europe in negotiations, but Moscow is resistant. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sees a political opportunity for peace due to changes in the U.S. Congress and upcoming elections in Europe. Meanwhile, fighting continues, and Ukraine faces new disruptions in its Starlink internet service.
