What have the talks with Russia and the US in Abu Dhabi achieved for Ukraine?

The recent trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi between Ukraine, the US, and Russia resulted in an agreement for a significant prisoner exchange but did not achieve a ceasefire. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy emphasized the need for security guarantees and European involvement in future diplomacy. Experts view the prisoner swap as a humanitarian success but caution against overestimating the talks' significance, noting low chances for a ceasefire. Discussions included contentious territorial issues, with Russia asserting claims over several Ukrainian regions. The outcome remains uncertain, with expectations of continued military actions unless genuine negotiations progress.
