The United States will mediate trilateral talks with Ukraine and Russia in Abu Dhabi next week, with US envoy Steve Witkoff saying the discussions will focus on ending the war and related measures. Coverage agrees the meetings are scheduled for November 10–11 and will involve officials from Washington, Moscow and Kyiv.
Outlets describe a set of common discussion themes: post-war security arrangements, de-escalation steps, and humanitarian measures. Several reports say the talks are intended to produce progress before winter, although they acknowledge that the parties remain far apart on what a possible deal could look like.
Framing differs across sources. Some emphasize the US role in mediation and the schedule of the next round, while others add background about previous US-mediated talks taking place in February. One outlet also notes Witkoff has indicated the agenda will include steps toward “ending the war,” while others highlight the security and de-escalation focus more prominently.
