Ukraine, Russia to resume peace talks in Geneva

 

Peace talks between Russia and Ukraine will on Tuesday resume in Geneva, with the United States (U.S.) acting as mediator to end nearly four years of war.

The discussions will follow two earlier rounds of trilateral negotiations held in Abu Dhabi in January and early February, as diplomats search for a path toward resolving the conflict.

The conflict began with Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff is expected to attend the talks, marking a busy diplomatic day in the Swiss city.

Separate negotiations between the U.S. and Iran are also scheduled to take place in Geneva on Tuesday.
