Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed concern on Monday, March 2, about a potential shortage of ammunition for air defense systems, which are essential against Russian strikes, if the war in the Middle East were to continue. Although peace talks between Kyiv and Moscow, mediated by the United States, were considered for early March in the United Arab Emirates, the growing conflict in the Middle East, triggered by US-Israeli strikes on Iran, casts doubt on whether these discussions will take place. Zelensky indicated he is in contact with his partners on this matter, while specifying that he has not yet received negative signals, and mentioned Turkey and Switzerland as potential alternatives to host negotiations if difficulties arise with Abu Dhabi.
