According to Reuters, Ukrainian President Zelensky said on the 28th that he hoped that the talks could be held in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, from November 6 to 10. However, Kremlin foreign policy adviser Oshakov told the media that the negotiation time depends on the evolution of the battlefield and the development of the overall situation, and pointed out that the current Middle East region is affected by the conflict between the United States and Israel against Iran, and it may be difficult to hold talks in the short term.
Regarding the willingness of European countries to participate in the talks, Oshakov denied it and emphasized that European negotiators are not currently being considered. Although the heads of state of Britain, France and Germany all issued statements a few days ago, advocating that Europe should play a role in the US-mediated ceasefire negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, Oshakov reiterated that the current agreement is limited to the resumption of consultations involving representatives of Russia, Ukraine and the United States.
