Russia weighs halt to peace talks unless Ukraine cedes territory, Bloomberg News reports

Feb 28 (Reuters) - Russian officials increasingly see little reason to continue U.S.-led peace talks with Ukraine unless Kyiv signals it is prepared to give up territory as part of a settlement, Bloomberg News reported on Saturday, citing people familiar with the matter.

Talks scheduled for next week will be critical to determining whether the sides can move towards an agreement to end the war, the report said.

Reuters could not immediately verify the report.
