The Russian delegation, led by Kremlin aide Vladimir Medinsky, US representatives, and part of the Ukrainian delegation arrived in Abu Dhabi on Monday.

In 2026, the negotiating teams from Russia, the United States, and Ukraine have held three rounds of peace talks to find a political solution to the Ukrainian conflict.

The first two rounds took place in Abu Dhabi on January 23-24 and February 4-5, respectively. The third and final round was held in Geneva on February 17-18.

Russian forces have been conducting a special military operation since February 24, 2022, to halt Ukrainian shelling of civilians in Donetsk and Lugansk, two territories that gained independence from Ukraine in 2014 and joined Russia in September 2022 after holding referendums.
