On the 10th, Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) secretary-general Budawi welcomed a
new Russia–US–Ukraine trilateral round beginning in Abu Dhabi, saying the UAE's
active diplomacy supports international efforts to restore peace. He said
hosting the talks reflects international recognition of the UAE’s status and
trust in its ability to foster dialogue, and that Emirati diplomacy has created
favorable conditions for the parties to increase understanding and engage in
talks.
