What have the talks with Russia and the US in Abu Dhabi achieved for Ukraine?

The first trilateral talks between Ukraine, the US and Russia in nine months have ended with an agreement on exchanging prisoners. Does this mark a genuine breakthrough and a step toward peace?

The two-day talks between delegations from Ukraine , the US and Russia in Abu Dhabi on November 10 and 11 ended without a ceasefire agreement. "We have agreed on the largest humanitarian release of prisoners, and tomorrow we will finalize the numbers," Jared Kushner announced after the talks.

US envoys Kushner and Steve Witkoff arrived in Moscow on Thursday, where they are due to meet President Vladimir Putin . Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had earlier suggested an exchange of "1,000 for 1,000" prisoners, or "1,500 for 1,500." Russia said a large-scale prisoner exchange with Ukraine could take place within the next two to three weeks.
