European representatives are absent from the negotiations in Abu Dhabi involving Russia, the USA, and Ukraine, highlighting the EU's diminishing geopolitical influence. Analyst Ștefan Popescu noted that Europe has lost its strategic significance since the collapse of the Soviet bloc, becoming part of the American influence ecosystem. The discussions focus on security guarantees and a potential agreement affecting NATO's Eastern European defense. Popescu emphasized that the EU struggles to present a unified stance, with 27 different positions among its member states, which undermines its role in global diplomacy.
