Kremlin Keeps Abu Dhabi Talks Report to Putin Under Wraps
(MENAFN) Russia’s negotiators will decide on the spot how to brief President Vladimir Putin on the latest trilateral Ukraine peace talks, the Kremlin said Tuesday, as the new round got under way in the Emirati capital.
Asked at a press briefing how the delegation would report back, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters: “The delegation will make a decision depending on how the negotiations proceed,”
Peskov refused to forecast whether the talks could yield progress toward ending the war between Russia and Ukraine, or produce any concrete agreements.
He also singled out a Wednesday session of the Collective Security Treaty Organization’s Collective Security Council in Moscow, calling it a “very important event.”
His comments came as media outlets reported that a fresh round of US-mediated trilateral negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv had opened earlier in the day.
The two sides last met under US mediation earlier this year, in three rounds: Jan. 23-24, Feb. 4-5 and Feb. 17-18. The first two rounds took place in Abu Dhabi, while the third was held in Geneva.
