Putin-Zelensky meeting ‘very close’

More Russia-US-Ukraine talks must happen before the two leaders get together, an American official has told Axios.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky could meet face-to-face in the near future if ongoing talks between their respective countries and the United States continue, according to Axios.

The two-day trilateral peace talks in Abu Dhabi, which ended on Saturday, were the first joint meeting of Russian, US and Ukrainian delegations since the conflict escalated almost four years ago.

Axios cited an unnamed American official on Saturday, saying the negotiations in the UAE “went as well as we could have expected. We feel good where we are now.”

“We are very close to a meeting between Putin and Zelensky,” another US official claimed. More trilateral Russia-US-Ukraine talks “need to happen before a meeting between the leaders. We don’t think we are far away from that. If we continue down the current path we will get to that place,” the source explained.



The official said the next round of trilateral talks, scheduled for February 1 in Abu Dhabi, could open the door to a meeting in Moscow or Kiev. Putin and Zelensky last met in person in Paris in December 2019 during talks brokered by France and Germany. They spoke by phone twice the following year.

In 2022, Zelensky signed a decree banning negotiations with Putin following Russian accession referendums in four former Ukrainian regions. Moscow has repeatedly noted that Kiev has not repealed or amended the ban.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said previously that the Russian president has not ruled out the possibility of holding a summit with Zelensky, but insists that it must be well prepared and serve to sign concrete agreements on ending the conflict, which has been worked out by the experts from the two countries.

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this week, Zelensky claimed Ukraine was open to a ceasefire with Russia, while demanding peace strictly on Kiev’s terms, Western arms, and funding. Moscow maintains that any settlement must be permanent, reflect the realities on the ground and address the root causes of the crisis.

  1. MI-6, the CIA and the Mossad will undermine and sabotage these proposed talks.
    After all, it’s bad for the Military Industrial Complex stockholders (most of them in Congress…).
    Besides, the West is in violation of the 1994 Agreement to not move an inch further east, and also admitted to using the Minsk Agreement to buy time so that Ukraine and it’s Zionist J3wi$h ‘Leadership’ could stockpile weapons and then invade Russia.
    The ethnic Russians in the eastern region of the greater Donbass region have suffered bombing, shelling, sniping, murder and imposed Ukrainian hardship for over 10 years, with 10,000 ethnic Russian Ukrainians dying.
    ALL of those Oblasts in the east voted to join Russia via polling places that were monitored by International Poll Watchers.
    The votes were legitimate, just as the votes to join Russia in the Crimean Oblast were.
    Zelensky (a J3w…) has removed Russian and Ukrainian Orthodox Christianity from the Ukraine, outlawed Russian language, Russian Culture, and Russian Media. Ukraine today has an UNELECTED President whose term expired months ago, and is a Zionist Talmudic Noahide Law Dic(k)tatorship, full of chemical weapons labs, money laundering, and child sex trafficking!
    Zelensky is abiding by the evil, Satanic Talmud in sending his conscripting his non-J3wi$h Goyim / Gentile Christian Citizens off to war to be killed within 4 hours after arriving at the front.
    Zelensky has openly stated that he wants the Ukraine to become another Israel; we can all see how that is working out…war crimes, genocide, holodomor, denial of aid, etc.
    NEW ZEALAND SHOULD BE SUPPORTING PUTIN & THE RUSSIAN NATION, AND NOT KOWTOWING TO A ZIONIST REGIME THAT HAS A GREATER AMBITION TO REFORM OLD KHAZARIA UNDER THE ‘GREATER ISRAEL’ PLAN.
    The Uni-Party in New Zealand is directly supporting a destructive Zionist Global Cabal in that region of the world, and such support needs to stop based on the genocide, holodomor, denial of aid and medical care, and the unethical methodologies of the Zionist-controlled Talmudic J3wi$h Government there.
    Once the J3w$ (who are NOT J3w$ in reality- the criminal cabal operating in those regions adopted Judiasm simply for trade and business contracts during the reign of King Bhulan…) finish their evil, destructive work in the region, they will then start on the rest of the world.
    That is occurring via uncontrolled migration of Third World ‘Cultures’ being forced by war and hardship to migration to the West thus causing conflict, non-assililation, and a massivefinancial drain on Western Nations while displacing the citizens of those nations.
    This is the root of the global Civil War that will run simultaneously in many nations when the ‘Global Economy’ collapses, as we are seeing now, and Law Enforcement, having been trained by the Israeli IDF are now summarily executing the Citizens of their Nation-States
    in their regions, just as the IDF is doing in Palestine.
    We are all Palestinians now, whether we acknowledge the abuses now or later, the end result will be summary executions in the streets and in homes, tumultous, mentally confusing and deceptive (in keeping with the Mossad motto…) while your neighbours begin to disappear.

    IF YOU WANT TO SHIELD AND INSULATE NEW ZEALAND FROM THIS INSTITUTIONAL ZIONIST MADNESS, THEN EVERY ONE OF YOU WILL HAVE TO DITCH THE UNI-PARTY POLITICS AND IT’S ASSOCIATED CONTROLLED MEDIA IN NEW ZEALAND, AND VOTE FOR THE NEW ZEALAND LOYAL PARTY!
