Russia, Ukraine and the United States are planning trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi in the first half of November, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Friday, after U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff met President Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg1.

The announcement followed days of mixed signals. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the American side wanted a meeting as soon as possible and that Kyiv supported that timing, Meduza reported, while Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov pointed to mid-November, after U.S. midterm elections3,4.

Fighting did not pause. CNBC reported that Ukraine's Energy Ministry said overnight Russian strikes on energy facilities left more than 500,000 people without electricity, and that Russia's Defense Ministry said it intercepted 443 Ukrainian drones2. Meduza said a strike on Kyiv killed one person and injured more than 20, and that two people were injured in a drone attack in the Novaya Moskva district3.

France 24, citing AFP, said Trump described the moment as the closest the sides had been to ending the war after Witkoff's meeting with Putin, even as Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko said missiles wounded six people in the capital4.

Putin said in a televised interview that any trilateral talks should address long-term security arrangements for a final settlement, not a short truce, Al Jazeera and CNBC reported1,2. Zelenskyy told CNN he was ready for a ceasefire if Ukraine received strong security guarantees, CNBC said2.

Al Jazeera reported that previous U.S.-brokered talks earlier this year made little progress and that Russia still seeks large territorial concessions and a bar on NATO membership for Ukraine1. The same account said the White House stated that first lady Melania Trump had brokered a localized ceasefire in the occupied southern city of Oleshky; independent confirmation of that arrangement was not in the other reports reviewed1.

What remains unknown includes a firm start date, who will sit at the table besides technical teams, and whether either side will halt strikes on energy and cities before November1,2,3.
