Europe will be represented at US-mediated Ukraine talks in Abu Dhabi: France
The talks scheduled for Nov 10 to 11 had been framed as a trilateral format at the level of officials, not leaders, from Ukraine, Russia and the United States.
Paris: Europe to have a voice in US-mediated Ukraine peace talks in Abu Dhabi, says French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot on November 8th. The upcoming negotiations between Ukraine, Russia, and the United States in the United Arab Emirates aim to bring an end to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Europe's representation will be provided by France, as President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has emphasized the importance of European allies' involvement.
Despite some uncertainty regarding the identities of the participants, French officials have stated that they will be actively engaged in the process and ensure that Europe's perspective is heard. US President Donald Trump has hinted at a potential deal encompassing the Ukraine war and broader European security, but Russia has expressed skepticism about European representatives taking part in the talks.
US officials, including Jared Kushner, have been participating in discussions ahead of the Abu Dhabi summit, with the goal of establishing a lasting peace and a more robust European security architecture.
