Brussels – The European Commission will host a meeting tomorrow (4 November) in Brussels with representatives from France, Germany and the United Kingdom (the E3 countries), the United States, NATO and the World Bank to discuss Ukraine’s future after the war. This was confirmed by the chief spokesperson for the union’s government, Paula Pinho, during the daily press briefing.
“The meeting will follow on from previous talks held in Miami, which involved Ukraine and the United States, with a view to achieving a lasting and sustainable peace in Ukraine. The meeting will focus on Ukraine’s post-war reconstruction and prosperity,” said Pinho. Representing the Commission will be national security advisers and “senior officials”, the spokesperson clarified. Meanwhile, Brussels is maintaining contact with Washington. “We are also in contact with our US counterparts regarding the announcements and forthcoming meetings,” added Pinho.
The meeting forms part of a new phase of intensified diplomatic efforts to bring an end to the Russian war against Ukraine, with Washington committed to reviving dialogue with Moscow and Kyiv. The talks in Miami involved Ukrainian, US, and European representatives, with the aim of exploring the conditions for achieving a lasting peace and defining the country’s prospects in the post-war period.
The new meeting in Brussels also precedes the trilateral talks between the United States, Ukraine, and Russia announced for 10 and 11 November in Abu Dhabi by the US envoy Steve Witkoff. According to Washington, the negotiations are expected to address the end of the war, post-war security guarantees, and de-escalation measures.
