Asian markets ended higher on Thursday amid slightly easing worries about inflation following a drop in commodity prices. Traders were also picking up stocks at a bargain after the recent sell-off due to the escalation in the Russia-Ukraine conflict and stringent sanctions imposed on Russia. Traders also remained optimistic amid ongoing talks to diffuse the Russia-Ukraine crisis, with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky no longer pressing for NATO membership for Ukraine, a delicate issue that was one of Russia's stated reasons for invading its pro-Western neighbour. Chinese markets ended higher after Ukraine said it is ready to make reasonable concessions to end the war.
