Vladimir Putin has arrived in Abu Dhabi for talks with UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahyan, according to Russian state media. The leaders will first meet as part of delegations and then meet one-on-one.

Later on Wednesday, Putin will go to Saudi Arabia to meet with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

In March 2023, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant against the Russian president for allegedly ordering the deportations of children from Ukraine’s occupied territories. Neither the UAE nor Saudi Arabia recognize the ICC.
