Dr Anwar Gargash, Diplomatic Adviser to the UAE President, has highlighted the UAE's "constructive role in facilitating dialogue and bridging differences" as Abu Dhabi hosts the second day of Ukraine-Russia-US trilateral talks.
He expressed "optimism" that the talks could "achieve a positive breakthrough that paves the way for ending a long war and a deep crisis".
Dr Gargash said he firmly believes that "political and diplomatic solutions are the path to a lasting peace".
استضافة أبوظبي للمفاوضات الأمريكية الروسية الأوكرانية تعكس مكانة الإمارات ودورها البنّاء في تيسير الحوار وتقريب وجهات النظر. نتطلع بتفاؤل إلى أن تحقق هذه المحادثات اختراقاً إيجابياً يمهّد لظروف إنهاء حرب طويلة وأزمة عميقة.
