YouTube Description
as posted by the channelUkraine, Russia, and the United States are set to begin the second day of talks in Abu Dhabi, aiming to end Moscow's full-scale invasion, which has lasted nearly four years. The first day of trilateral talks in the Emirati capital concluded on Wednesday with Kyiv describing the negotiations as "substantive and productive," though there was no apparent breakthrough. The main stumbling block in the negotiations is the fate of the territory in eastern Ukraine. Moscow is demanding that Kyiv withdraw its troops from large areas of the Donbas region, including heavily fortified cities located atop vast natural resources, as a precondition for any agreement. Kyiv has said the conflict should be frozen along the current front line and has rejected any pullback of its forces. Meanwhile, Russia continued strikes on Ukraine's power infrastructure, leaving many people, including residents of the capital city of Kyiv, without power and shivering through temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius (-4 degrees Fahrenheit) in recent days.
