Witkoff Sets Nov. 10–11 Abu Dhabi Date for US-Russia-Ukraine Talks
Trump's envoy confirms the first direct Ukraine-Russia talks since February, to be held in the UAE right after the US midterms.
What to know
- US envoy Steve Witkoff has set Nov. 10-11 in Abu Dhabi for the first US-Russia-Ukraine trilateral talks since February, scheduled right after the US midterms.
- Agenda covers post-war security arrangements, de-escalation, humanitarian measures and a path to ending the war, with Witkoff and Jared Kushner representing Washington.
- The talks follow Witkoff's meeting with Putin in St. Petersburg, but Moscow and Kyiv remain far apart on territory and security guarantees.
- Commentary warns a return to talks should not be mistaken for actual progress, since core obstacles like territorial concessions remain unresolved.
“We are ready to speak, we are ready for negotiations, any kind of format, we are even ready to speak about any kind of topics, sensitive topics for us”
