Kushner said they see “some openings and some opportunities” to make progress on unresolved issues following the previous discussions.

It is also expected that the Ukrainian leader will hold a bilateral meeting with the Taoiseach during his brief visit, and Zelenskyy is also expected to speak at the European Political Community Summit on Thursday.

Progress was made at talks between Russia and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday, with reports that both sides have agreed a large exchange of prisoners of war.

“One of the positives is we agreed that we’re going to have the biggest humanitarian release of prisoners, which we’re going to finalise the numbers tomorrow,” Kushner said.

Vladimir Medinsky, the head of the Russian delegation, and Rustem Umerov, who led Kyiv’s delegation in Abu Dhabi, confirmed the planned exchange.

Zelenskyy said Tuesday’s session was “constructive and quite substantive”.
