一名美国官员周一表示，尽管公开立场未变，俄罗斯和乌克兰在东部顿涅茨克地区的未来问题上私下已表现出一些“灵活性”。
Russia and Ukraine have privately shown some “flexibility” on the future of the eastern Donetsk region despite unchanged public positions, a US official said Monday.
“显然，公开立场保持不变，即俄罗斯称他们想要整个顿涅茨克，而乌克兰主张按接触线划界，但双方私下都表现出了一点灵活性，”该官员在要求匿名的情况下向记者表示。“我们将开始讨论这可能是什么样子，”该官员补充道。
“Obviously, the public positions remain the same, which is Russia says they want all Donetsk, and Ukraine is saying let’s do the contact line, but both sides have shown a little bit of flexibility privately,” the official told reporters on the condition of anonymity. “We’re going to start the discussion about what that can be,” the official added.
俄罗斯、乌克兰和美国代表定于周二起在阿布扎比举行新一轮三方和平谈判。该官员表示，在战后安全安排确定之前，领土问题无法解决。
Russian, Ukrainian, and US representatives are scheduled to convene in Abu Dhabi for a renewed round of trilateral peace negotiations starting Tuesday. The official said the territorial question cannot be settled before post-war security arrangements are defined.
“在不知道战后他们的安全架构将是什么样子之前，他们不会解决顿涅茨克问题和领土问题，”该官员说。“我们无法在不解决另一个的情况下敲定其中一个。”“如果双方都知道如何结束，他们就必须知道他们将结束成什么样，”该官员补充道。
“They will not solve the Donetsk issue and the territorial issue until they know what their security architecture is going to be after the war,” the official said. “We’re not going to be able to finalize one without the other.”“If both parties know how to finish, they have to know what they’re finishing into,” the official added.
乌克兰的安全保障 该官员表示，美国已要求俄罗斯允许华盛顿向乌克兰提供参照北约第4条和第5条模式的安全保障，由北约提供相同保障。“他们将获得的实际上将与北约非常相似，”该官员说。
Security guarantees for Ukraine The official said the US has asked Russia to allow Washington to give Ukraine security guarantees modeled on NATO’s Articles 4 and 5, with NATO providing the same. “What they would be getting would be effectively very similar to NATO,” the official said.
“我们将看看（唐纳德·）特朗普总统决定是否要授予这一保障。获得美国安全保障是一件非常、非常大的事，”该官员补充道。“（弗拉基米尔·）泽连斯基总统将不得不请求他，然后他将不得不同意这样做。”
“We’ll see what President (Donald) Trump decides if he wants to grant it. Getting a US security guarantee is a really, really big deal,” the official added. “President (Volodymyr) Zelensky will have to ask him, and then he’ll have to agree to do that.”
该官员表示，美国有一份供双方讨论的“七、八个问题”清单，但补充道：“我们不指望在阿布扎比解决这些问题，但我们希望重启这一进程。”该官员说，德国、法国、英国、意大利、北约和欧盟也将参加在阿布扎比举行的谈判。
The official said the US has a list of “seven, eight issues” for the sides to discuss, but added: “We don’t expect to resolve these questions in Abu Dhabi, but we want to get that process started again.”The official said Germany, France, the UK, Italy, NATO, and the EU will also join the talks in Abu Dhabi.
“这可以说是我们第一次看到俄罗斯方面真正有结束战争的意愿，”这位官员补充道。
“This is the first time I feel like we see real desire on the Russian side to finish,” the official added.
这位官员表示，美国特使史蒂夫·威特科夫和贾里德·库什纳可能很快会再次出访，会见俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京和乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基。
The official said US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner could travel again soon to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
俄罗斯和乌克兰上一次举行美国斡旋的和谈是在今年早些时候，1月和2月在阿布扎比和日内瓦进行了三轮会谈。
Russia and Ukraine last held US-mediated peace talks early this year, with three rounds taking place in January and February in Abu Dhabi and Geneva.
2025年8月，在阿拉斯加举行的特朗普-普京峰会后，威特科夫表示，俄罗斯已同意美国和欧洲国家可向乌克兰提供类似北约第五条款的安全保障。去年12月，在柏林会谈后，美国官员称华盛顿已向基辅提供此类保障。
In August 2025, after a Trump-Putin summit in Alaska, Witkoff said Russia had agreed that the US and European countries could offer Ukraine Article 5-like security guarantees. Last December, after talks in Berlin, US officials said Washington had offered such guarantees to Kyiv.
