Reuters reported a second day of Russian, Ukrainian and US negotiations in Abu Dhabi on November 11. Kyiv and Washington described earlier discussions positively, but major differences remained.

Ukraine’s negotiator planned a separate meeting with European partners after the three-country session. Continued diplomacy and optimistic descriptions were not evidence of a completed peace settlement.
