00:00Where will the meeting between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin take place?
00:08The arrest warrant by the International Criminal Court for abduction of Ukrainian children puts Russia's president at risk of detention in any of the ICC's 125 members if Putin steps into their territory.
00:23But some countries are ready to make an exception and promise not to arrest Putin if he comes for the meeting, which could put an end to Russia's war against Ukraine.
00:34Switzerland, a signatory to the ICC, is a possible option.
00:38The country's foreign minister said Switzerland would be ready to host Russian president for any peace talks on Ukraine, despite an existing arrest warrant for him.
00:48Austrian chancellor also weighed in, saying his country, also a signatory to the ICC, supported any initiative leading to just and lasting peace that protects Ukrainian and European security interests.
01:02Now, where else could this meeting take place?
01:06The Middle East could be a solid compromise location.
01:09In March, Saudi Arabia hosted a U.S. delegation for the talks first with Ukrainian and then Russian officials.
01:16The meeting also could take place in Qatar or the United Arab Emirates.
01:22Now, these countries are believed to be among the most possible options.
01:26Euronews correspondents from Dubai and Doha.
01:30Explain why.
01:31Now the question is, why Qatar?
01:33Despite being a relatively small Gulf state, Qatar firmly has a seat at the international table and is frequently called upon to be a go-to mediator in several international conflicts.
01:43Those mediation efforts include Russia and Ukraine.
01:47Just last month, Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced it had successfully reunited 100 children with their families.
01:54During his recent visit to Doha in May, U.S. President Donald Trump praised Qatar for its efforts in regional stability and particularly crisis diplomacy in Gaza, Syria and Lebanon.
02:06Qatar believes mediation efforts are a core tenet of its foreign policy and a clear indicator of its soft power.
02:13Why the United Arab Emirates?
02:15Well, the UAE has deliberately shaped its role as a diplomatic broker, a state able to move between rival powers while maintaining credibility of both.
02:24That strategy has extended directly to the war in Ukraine.
02:27Earlier this year, Emirati officials helped arrange exchanges that brought home Ukrainian prisoners of war, along with children taken to Russia.
02:35It was a reminder that Emirates can act where others have limited reach.
02:38At the same time, Abu Dhabi has preserved its dialogue in Moscow.
02:43Earlier this month, President Mohammed bin Zayed traveled to Russia for talks of Vladimir Putin, a meeting that highlighted the trust that both sides placed in the relationship.
