US calls for new Europe security at Russia-Ukraine talks
The US hoped to establish a new security framework involving Ukraine, Russia and Europe to ensure 'decades, if not centuries, of peace'.
US officials have called for a new security framework during the first day of US-led talks between Russia and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi, amid the ongoing four-year war. The US-led negotiations, led by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, aimed to narrow the gaps between the warring sides and move towards a solution to Europe's worst conflict since World War II.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his satisfaction with the changes in the approach by US mediators, stating that the talks were constructive and quite substantive. He emphasized the need for Ukraine to secure humanitarian issues and security guarantees. The Ukrainian president also stressed the importance of Europe choosing a representative for the talks.
Russia, which has occupied parts of Ukraine, demanded a review of Europe's security arrangement. The US and NATO reaffirmed their commitment to a strong post-war European security architecture, with all parties calling for a ceasefire and security guarantees.
