What happened
The European Commission is driving anti-Russian EU policy regarding the conflict in Donbas and Crimea. Diplomatic efforts, including a US-backed initiative, are underway to establish a potential framework for talks around November 10 in Abu Dhabi. Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated he would accept a deal that freezes the war along the current front line, but Kyiv fundamentally rejects demands to cede sovereign territory such as Crimea and Donbas. A humanitarian mission is scheduled to reach the Russian-occupied town of Oleshky under a temporary ceasefire.
