Russia May End Peace Talks Without Ukrainian Territory Concessions

Saturday, February 28, 2026 at 3:17 AM

Russian officials are reportedly considering abandoning U.S.-mediated peace negotiations with Ukraine unless Kyiv agrees to surrender territory in any settlement. Upcoming talks next week could determine whether diplomatic efforts to end the conflict can continue.

Russian leadership is growing skeptical about continuing diplomatic negotiations with Ukraine through U.S. mediation unless Ukrainian officials indicate willingness to surrender land as part of any peace agreement, according to a Bloomberg News report published Saturday that cited sources with knowledge of the situation.

The news outlet indicated that diplomatic meetings planned for the coming week will be pivotal in establishing whether both nations can progress toward a comprehensive agreement to conclude the ongoing conflict.

Reuters noted it was unable to independently confirm the Bloomberg report’s claims.
