The United States has arranged working-level trilateral talks between Ukraine, Russia and the U.S. in Abu Dhabi for Nov. 10–11, led by envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. Delegations will discuss post-war security arrangements, de-escalation, humanitarian measures and next steps toward a peace agreement; lower-level U.S. officials will meet European and NATO representatives in Brussels this week.
Leaders and negotiators are pursuing a broader European role in talks to end the Ukraine war. US, Ukraine, and NATO officials met in Brussels as Washington signals a move toward a wider European security framework. European states insist their voice must be heard in Abu Dhabi.
The reports describe a complex deal overseeing Lukoil assets that could span oil fields, refineries and gas stations worldwide. The White House and Kremlin must approve, and figures linked to Kushner and Boehly are involved, signaling a high-stakes balance between diplomacy and energy interests.
Ukraine has reported that Starlink's military variant, Starshield, was slowed in mid‑October, degrading its drone and air‑defence operations. The Wall Street Journal has reported Donald Trump phoned Elon Musk and asked him to restore full service; Trump and SpaceX deny a formal White House order. Kyiv says speeds have only been partially restored and the disruption has cost defensive capability.
The talks in Abu Dhabi have narrowed gaps on Europe’s security framework and potential ceasefire, with Kushner and Witkoff seeking a durable post–war order. Zelensky and European leaders are calling for a broader, multilateral approach while Kyiv pushes for a ceasefire and guarantees.
