The United States and Russia have agreed to restart high-level military contacts that had been suspended shortly after the invasion of Ukraine, the US announced.

The agreement came during negotiations in Abu Dhabi aimed at seeking an end to Russia’s war, facilitated by President Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner.
