French Foreign ​Minister Jean-Noel Barrot has said  that European officials will participate in talks on Ukraine in Abu Dhabi this week.  France will be in Abu Dhabi ​to take part in these discussions, Barrot said.

Earlier, US envoy Steve Witkoff had said that Washington would bring delegations from Ukraine and Russia together in Abu Dhabi on November 10-11 to discuss ending Moscow’s war against Ukraine, post-war security agreements and de-escalation.

US President Donald Trump on Thursday told reporters that the war was close to being settled and that ending it might involve all of Europe. US Secretary of State ​Marco Rubio said Trump was likely alluding to progress on security guarantees ​for Ukraine and Europe. Trump envoy Jared Kushner said US officials meeting in Brussels ⁠on Thursday ​held productive and substantive discussions with Ukraine, NATO ​and European partners on security guarantees for Ukraine and a broader European security architecture.
