US President Donald Trump is "committed" to ending the war in Ukraine, believing the conflict has dragged on "too long," US Special Envoy Jared Kushner said.
Assessing today's meetings in Abu Dhabi positively, Kushner noted that, at Trump's direction, he is working to stop the war and establish security arrangements necessary for a sovereign, secure, and prosperous Ukraine, as well as lasting peace across Europe.
"Over the last two months, we had really good discussions with President Zelenskyy and with President Putin. President Trump is really committed to seeing peace. He thinks this war has gone on for too long," the US envoy noted.
He added that Trump is very concerned about the vast number of people affected by the war, the loss of life, and the resulting humanitarian crisis.
Kushner emphasized that Trump had asked the American negotiating team to double down on efforts to find a solution that would hopefully end the war while leaving both sides in a much stronger position.
Negotiations in Abu Dhabi
Trilateral negotiations between Ukraine, the United States, and Russia resumed in Abu Dhabi on November 10. The first round concluded after more than four hours of discussions.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that it is difficult for the Ukrainian delegation to negotiate with the Russian side.
Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha later reported that Ukraine has passed its ceasefire proposals to partners and is currently awaiting a response from the Russian side.
