A U.S. official told ABC News on Tuesday that a Ukrainian delegation has agreed with the United States on the terms of a potential peace deal.

United States Army Secretary Dan Driscoll held secret talks on Monday with a Russian delegation in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates to follow up on this weekend’s talks with Ukraine in Geneva that were intended to move the Ukraine peace process forward, a U.S. official told ABC News.

"The Ukrainians have agreed to the peace deal," the U.S. official said. "There are some minor details to be sorted out but they have agreed to a peace deal."

The previously undisclosed talks with the Russian delegation on Monday follow the talks held in Geneva this past weekend between the U.S. and Ukraine and are the latest indication that the new U.S. initiative to restart the peace process in Ukraine is moving forward.

Unless Zelensky or one his strong allies in Europe says it - it's a lie. Never trust a magapub or their god and savior Putin.

12. Hey ABC News did you by some strange chance ask Zelensky..............maybe you could ask the relatives of the

14,000 plus civilians that have been killed or the dead 60, 000 to 100,000 soldiers relatives what they think............and by the way did you by some chance ask the "official" who invaded who.............JFC...............

13. I share the skepticism of those who've replied above

It should be noted that the "deal" reportedly has been stripped of the most offensive and provocative pro-Russian points and left others to be negotiated later - like land divisions.

I seriously doubt Russia has any intention of signing any agreement anyway, more likely to spin out any discussions of disagreements to play for time and give Trump a pretext for not imposing further sanctions. And in the vanishingly small possibility that it does, past experience advises doubt that it intends to honour any agreements and commitments.

15. "a Ukrainian delegation"

Maybe not an official Ukrainian delegation?
