The European Union wants to join the talks between Russia, the U.S., and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi by sending its own delegation, — Euronews
According to the channel, the European Commission and the European Council are preparing a joint delegation of senior officials. It may be headed by Björn Seibert, chief of staff to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
Euronews sources note that Brussels hopes to turn the trilateral talks into a quadrilateral format so that EU representatives can participate directly in discussions on the terms for resolving the conflict.
"Notably, Brussels is now openly declaring its intention to hold the upcoming talks in a multilateral format, which would mean Europeans, Ukrainians, Americans, and Russians sitting at the same table at the same time. This has never happened before in the peace process. Until now, talks with Russia were mainly led by the United States, sometimes within the framework of trilateral meetings involving Ukraine," the channel notes.
