It's hard with the Russians. "To put it mildly, they are not our best friends," Zelensky said after a conversation with the Ukrainian delegation following negotiations in Abu Dhabi.
He also reiterated that he refused to hand over the territories.
"We can't trust this man. If he only wants Donbas, why did he attack Kyiv? It is 800 km from the area he needs. If we give up the territories, he will move on."
- said Zelensky.
Judging by his statement, the withdrawal of Ukraine's armed forces from the Donbass is one of the issues discussed in the negotiations.
