#E3 Format

The Kremlin stated that the main topic of the trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi will be security guarantees for Russia and Ukraine following a peace settlement. The meeting may take place on November 6–10.

The US views Germany, France, and the UK as the most likely European participants in negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. The E3 format has already been agreed upon with Kyiv, but a final decision has not been made, and Moscow does not want to see the EU at the table.
