Polish stock exchange reacts to speculation on Ukraine war peace terms
ABC News reported, unofficially, that Ukraine and the United States have agreed on key terms of a potential peace deal with Russia, leaving only minor details unresolved. According to U.S. sources, recent secret talks involved American and Russian officials in Abu Dhabi following earlier negotiations with Ukraine in Geneva. The U.S. revised its proposal from 28 to 19 points, while conflicting reports suggest Ukraine may accept limits on its armed forces. Ukrainian officials confirmed “common understanding” with Washington and signaled an expected visit by President Zelensky to the U.S.
The news sparked optimism on European markets. Polish stocks, especially banks and companies exposed to Ukraine and Russia, surged, while gas and oil prices declined amid hopes for de-escalation.
