ABU DHABI - Trilateral peace talks among the United States, Ukraine and Russia are underway in Abu Dhabi, according to CBS News. The network reported that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed positivity after the first day of negotiations on Tuesday. The headline of the CBS News report attributes to Zelenskyy the view that the first day was "constructive." CBS News contributor Elliot Ackerman has more on the talks in the broadcast segment.

In its live coverage, The Guardian reported that Zelenskyy was "happy" with the approach of US envoys as the Russia talks entered their second day. The Guardian's live report on the Europe and Ukraine talks said the Ukrainian president welcomed a change in message from US mediators ahead of the second day of trilateral talks with Russia and the United States.

The Guardian also reported that US officials are seeking a final end to the Russia-Ukraine war. According to the same live coverage, the second day of the Abu Dhabi talks had just got under way, as described by top representatives from Russia and Ukraine.

The CBS News and Guardian reports do not describe the substance of the discussions or any agreement reached. The Guardian's account notes that the Abu Dhabi talks were set to continue, but neither report, as summarized here, details specific proposals or outcomes.

The two outlets differ in emphasis rather than in facts. CBS News centered its report on Zelenskyy's assessment of the first day, while The Guardian focused on his reaction to the approach of US envoys and the start of the second day.
