US officials aim for final end to Russia‑Ukraine war in Abu Dhabi talks

US officials said they are seeking a “final end” to the war between Russia and Ukraine as trilateral peace talks began in Abu Dhabi.

The negotiations, described as the first substantive talks since February, involve the United States, Russia and Ukraine and are set to continue into a second day on Wednesday.

These talks are also the first since the United States launched joint strikes with Israel against Iran, and they follow the recent US mid‑term elections which have weakened former President Donald Trump domestically.

The United States has presented a proposal for a “long‑term security architecture” linking Moscow and Europe, aiming to provide a framework for lasting stability in the region.
