  "account": "Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on Friday that the United States has proposed a trilateral meeting involving Ukraine, Russia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to advance efforts to end the conflict. The UAE is being considered as a potential venue for the talks, which have previously taken place in Abu Dhabi and Geneva without significant progress. Zelensky stated that Kyiv is awaiting a specific date from the US, as their diplomats have been meeting with Russian and Ukrainian officials earlier this month to revive diplomatic efforts. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov revealed that Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump discussed the possibility of a trilateral meeting during their call earlier in the month. While Moscow has previously indicated a willingness to resume negotiations in a trilateral format, the core issues of territory and security arrangements have yet to be resolved. The UAE's potential involvement comes as the US seeks to reinvigorate negotiations after their momentum waned during the Iran crisis. Zelensky also expressed his intention to meet with Putin and requested that Trump encourage Chinese President Xi Jinping to use Beijing's influence on Moscow to help end the war.",
  "summary": "The latest proposal therefore represents a further attempt to restart negotiations rather than confirmation of a peace deal. The date, format and agenda of any new trilateral meeting are yet to be finalised.",
