In brief

Ukraine's delegation has begun meeting US and European partners to coordinate positions ahead of planned three-way talks with the United States and Russia.

Ukraine's delegation began consultations in Abu Dhabi with representatives of the United States and European partners, RBC-Ukraine reported, citing a Telegram post by Rustem Umerov. The aim is to align positions and coordinate next steps ahead of planned talks involving Russia.

Umerov said representatives of Britain, France, Germany, Italy, NATO and the European Commission had joined the initial meeting. The report said US presidential special representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner would also participate; it did not say they had already joined.

Three-way talks involving Ukraine, the United States and Russia are planned after the consultations with Western partners. Umerov listed Ukraine's priorities as ending hostilities, securing reliable postwar security guarantees, economic recovery and further development, with particular attention to humanitarian issues.

RBC-Ukraine's report did not specify when the meeting began or when Umerov posted his statement. It reported no outcomes from the consultations.
