Talks in Abu Dhabi, British media: Ukraine has rejected the US plan to change the borders of Donbass

Ukraine has rejected a new US proposal for a territorial compromise aimed at unblocking peace talks with Russia. According to the British newspaper The Telegraph, the plan proposed by President Donald Trump's envoys that would have seen Moscow take full control of the front line in the Donbas region, without Kiev having to hand over the cities it still controls in the area, has been rejected.  

The American proposal aimed to find a solution to the territorial issue, which remains the main obstacle in negotiations between the parties. Russia wants Ukraine to give up about 2,000 square miles of territory in Donetsk and Luhansk, areas that the Russian military has failed to fully occupy.

However, Kiev has made it clear that it will not accept any territorial concessions. A Ukrainian source close to the negotiations told The Telegraph that the Ukrainian delegation never discussed handing over territories occupied by Russia, stressing that Ukraine will not recognize those losses, neither factually nor legally.

Meanwhile, negotiations between Ukraine and Russia resumed in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday, following a break in the US-brokered process. The meetings were facilitated by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, Trump's envoy.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky described the talks as constructive and with concrete content, emphasizing that the parties discussed long-term security guarantees and humanitarian issues, especially the release of prisoners.

However, the involvement of European countries in the process remains another point of contention. European representatives were forced to leave the room before the start of the meeting with the Russian delegation, after Moscow objected to their participation.
