US-brokered Ukraine-Russia talks set for November 10-11 in Abu Dhabi

US-brokered talks between Ukraine and Russia will take place November 10-11 in Abu Dhabi, according to US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, who announced the working-level negotiations on Tuesday. Witkoff stated the discussions will focus on post-war security arrangements, de-escalation, humanitarian measures, and next steps toward peace, supporting President Trump's mission to end the war. He also said a US delegation will meet with European and NATO representatives in Brussels this week. The announcement follows Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's earlier indication that talks could occur on November 10, with Ukraine preferring European presence at the negotiations but not blocking the trilateral format if the US insists.
