US Envoy Kushner Proposes New European Security Order in Ukraine-Russia Talks

Ukrainian and Russian delegations met Tuesday in Abu Dhabi for their first talks since February, with US envoy Jared Kushner proposing a new European security architecture. The negotiations aim to end the war and establish lasting peace. Kushner said the talks should create proper security relations between Ukraine, Russia, and Europe, potentially securing "decades, if not centuries of peace." Ukrainian negotiators met with US envoys and NATO representatives beforehand. Russia insists on trilateral talks only, excluding Europeans, while Germany will attend at advisor level. US President Trump has hinted at a "very big" agreement affecting all of Europe, raising European concerns about being bypassed. Russia's delegation focuses on developing a comprehensive security framework for the continent, while Britain seeks additional military communication channels with Moscow to reduce miscalculation risks.
