France will participate in U.S.-mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine scheduled for November 10 and 11 in Abu Dhabi, Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said on RTL on November 8.

Barrot said no agreement on Europe’s security architecture can be devised or discussed without the Europeans.

UK sets four conditions for migrants to qualify for permanent residency

The UK has proposed an earned-settlement model that would make indefinite leave to remain depend on migrants’ conduct and contributions rather than granting it after five years. All applicants would need a clean criminal record, strong English skills, no outstanding government debts and evidence of sustained National Insurance contributions. The highest earners could qualify after three years, while people earning more than £50,271 and some public service workers could qualify after five; the proposed wait would be ten years for other migrants and at least 20 years for those who breached immigration rules.
