Russia and Ukraine are talking in Abu Dhabi. The United States is helping with the talks. The talks started on Friday. They will be for two days. The goal is to stop the fighting in Ukraine. The war has been for four years.
A big problem is land. Both countries want different land. This stopped peace before. The United States wants a peace deal. Ukraine wants help from America.
Before this, there were other meetings. President Zelenskyy spoke with President Trump. Also, Steve Witkoff met Vladimir Putin. These meetings helped get ready for today.
Russia wants Ukraine to take its army from Donbas. This is important for Russia. Ukraine wants to keep its land. It wants America to keep helping. President Zelenskyy hopes for peace. He said, "We hope this brings us closer to peace."
The war hurt Ukraine a lot. These talks try to find a way. The United Arab Emirates is hosting. They are a neutral country. For talks to work, both sides must agree on land. They must also feel safe. We do not know if peace will come.
