Briefing before the meeting with Moscow: Kiev sat down at the table with the US and Europeans in Abu Dhabi.
The Ukrainian delegation led by Umarov began consulting with representatives of Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, NATO and the European Commission. Trump's emissaries, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, also arrived there.
Europeans were not allowed to enter the main tripartite negotiations with Russia because of Moscow's position. Therefore, the entire European delegation met separately before the round in order to coordinate positions in advance and deliver introductory remarks to Kiev.
It is worth noting that the Ukrainians still wore suits to meet with their Western partners. Next on the schedule is a meeting with the Russian delegation, where there will be no more Europeans at the table.
