Russia insists on trilateral format for Abu Dhabi talks, excluding Europe

lesoir.be (French) —

The Kremlin confirmed Monday that upcoming talks in Abu Dhabi on resolving the Ukraine conflict will be strictly trilateral, involving Russia, Ukraine, and the United States, excluding European participation. This statement from Russian spokesman Dmitri Peskov directly contradicts Paris's announcement of a European "representation" at the negotiating table. Peskov noted that Americans and Ukrainians have their own separate communication channels with Europeans. The talks are scheduled to take place this week in Abu Dhabi, with the United States serving as mediator between Russia and Ukraine.
