## Summary

Volodymyr Zelensky says new Russia-Ukraine peace talks could take place as early as 10 November, with a US team expected to lead a meeting in Abu Dhabi. He says Ukraine is willing to discuss sensitive issues, but argues that progress depends on sustained diplomatic pressure and the United States recognising Russia as the aggressor.

The meeting was initially expected towards the end of November, and Kyiv had proposed talks on the Sunday before the US midterm elections. Zelensky said Washington postponed a planned Brussels meeting to focus on the Middle East, and warned that pauses could slow efforts to secure a ceasefire. He also said he had not spoken directly with Donald Trump since the US president made comments about Russia’s conduct, amid worsening relations between Washington and Kyiv.
