Present at the meeting are Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who flew to Abu Dhabi from Moscow after conducting negotiations with the Kremlin. Ukraine is sending its top diplomatic team, including Zelensky’s new chief of staff, Kyrylo Budanov.
The Ukrainian president heavily criticized European countries at Davos on Friday, citing their inability to take Russia’s threat to continental security seriously and build up their armed forces.
