Abu Dhabi May Host a New Round of Diplomatic Talks on Ukraine: Prospects for Negotiations Remain Uncertain

The possibility of a new round of diplomatic talks between representatives of the United States, Ukraine and Russia in Abu Dhabi reflects continued efforts to find political mechanisms for resolving the Russian-Ukrainian war. However, persistent disagreements over security arrangements, territorial issues and the terms of a ceasefire indicate that the parties have yet to establish a solid foundation for reaching an agreement.
According to CCBS information, contacts between representatives of the United States, Ukraine and Russia are scheduled to take place in Abu Dhabi on 10–11 November. The discussions are expected to focus primarily on prospects for ending hostilities, mechanisms for ensuring Ukraine's security and the framework for further diplomatic engagement.
The choice of Abu Dhabi as a potential venue for negotiations highlights the growing role of the Gulf states in international diplomacy. The United Arab Emirates has steadily strengthened its position as a mediator in international crises, maintaining channels of communication with various political actors.
One of the most challenging issues remains the establishment of security guarantees for Ukraine. Kyiv is seeking long-term international commitments that would help prevent the resumption of large-scale hostilities. Moscow, in turn, regards European security arrangements, NATO's military and political presence, and Ukraine's future international status as fundamental elements of any potential settlement.
The negotiation process is further complicated by differences between the parties over territorial issues, the sequencing of a ceasefire and mechanisms for international monitoring of the implementation of any potential agreements.
