US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has described the first day of Russia-Ukraine peace talks in Abu Dhabi as “very productive” and said Washington wants European countries to join future negotiations. The US-mediated discussions between Russian and Ukrainian delegations lasted several hours on Tuesday, marking the first such talks since February. Rubio said European partners must be involved in finding a lasting solution to the conflict, which began with Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The talks, led by US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, are scheduled to resume on Wednesday. However, major disagreements remain over territory and security arrangements. (PC: HT)
