Washington and Kiev have discussed several options for ending the Ukraine conflict, including the creation of a demilitarized zone or the deployment of neutral peacekeepers to the Kiev-controlled parts of Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), The New York Times has said. The options were reportedly brought up earlier this week at trilateral talks in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with Russian officials.
In an article on Saturday, the NYT reported that during the negotiations – the first of their kind since the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in 2022 – Kiev once again ruled out territorial concessions to Moscow.
