The next round of trilateral talks between Russia, the United States, and Ukraine may take place in Abu Dhabi in early November, according to Yuri Ushakov, an aide to Russian President Vladimir Putin, in an interview with the Russian news service "Vesti".

Ushakov noted that the parties are working towards a meeting around the middle of the month, though the final decision on the composition of the Russian delegation has not yet been made and will be determined by Putin.

He clarified that the negotiations are expected to be held at the expert level, similar to previous meetings in Abu Dhabi and Geneva. In prior rounds, the Russian delegation included presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky, Chief of the Main Directorate of the General Staff Igor Kostyukov, and Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin.

According to Ushakov, the upcoming consultations are expected to focus primarily on issues related to ensuring security for Russia and Ukraine following the end of the conflict.
