Where coverage agrees

Outlets across the political spectrum agree that U.S.-mediated peace talks between Russia and Ukraine took place in Abu Dhabi over two days and resulted in an agreement for a large-scale prisoner exchange.

How the framing differs

Right-leaning outlets like Fox News and The Last Refuge emphasize the specific involvement of U.S. officials Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, highlighting potential security guarantees and upcoming travel to Moscow.
