A U.S. official tells Fox News that Ukraine has agreed to a peace deal that would see an end to the war with Russia.
"There are some minor details to be sorted out but they have agreed to a peace deal," the official said.
Lt. Col. Jeff Tolbert, a spokesman for U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, had told Fox News that Driscoll and his team met with Russian officials in Abu Dhabi on Monday and Tuesday to discuss the framework for a Ukraine peace deal.
"The talks are going well and we remain optimistic. Secretary Driscoll is closely synchronized with the White House and the U.S. interagency as these talks progress," said Tolbert.
The war between the two countries is nearly four years old.
