The head of the European Commission confirmed that Europe and its partners will participate in tripartite negotiations in Abu Dhabi.
Ursula von der Leyen announced this after a "good conversation" with Zelensky.
"We discussed this week the ongoing peace and negotiation efforts in Abu Dhabi, which will involve the European Union together with our partners. I look forward to meeting President Zelensky in Dublin later this week and discussing the next steps for peace with other leaders," she wrote in X.
The head of the European Union also stated the need to restore and ensure the freedom of navigation in the Black Sea. She added that today she is starting a visit to the Black Sea region, where security threats are escalating, attacks are becoming more frequent and people are dying.
"In Romania and Bulgaria, I will meet with the leaders of these countries to discuss the current situation on the ground and how Europe can strengthen its response," von der Leyen said.
Earlier, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barro said that Europe will take part in tripartite negotiations between Russia, Ukraine and the US in Abu Dhabi.
