Ukraine and Russia officials hold first face to face peace talks
The Observer
|January 25, 2026
Ukrainian and Russian officials met for face to face talks this weekend for the first known time since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, as the US intensified its efforts to end the war.
Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and the US president's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, joined the talks in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) after meeting the Russian president Vladimir Putin in Moscow.
It was unclear what progress had been made when negotiations concluded yesterday. The second day of talks was marred by waves of Russian strikes on Ukraine’s two largest cities.
“His [Putin’s] missiles hit not only our people, but also the negotiation table,” said Andrii Sybiha, Ukraine's minister for foreign affairs.“Peace efforts? Trilateral meeting in the UAE? Diplomacy? For Ukrainians, this was another night of Russian terror.”
