Ukraine's President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has suggested that U.S.-brokered talks between Russia and Ukraine may take place in Switzerland or Turkey if the scheduled meeting in Abu Dhabi is not possible due to the ongoing Middle East conflict. He also noted that Western countries have not indicated that their delivery to Kyiv of vital air defense missiles could be disrupted by commitments to Middle East defense. The American and Israeli attacks on Iran and Iranian-backed militias' missile response may distract from the ongoing conflict in Europe.
