Wow! All three parties to yesterday's negotiations in Abu Dhabi agreed that there was some progress, and Ukraine even saw somewhere the "end of the war before the new year". But today the French La Figaro comes out and reports: "The negotiations in Abu Dhabi were interrupted due to the irreconcilable position of Russia"!
This is the meaning of the art of interpretation! Moreover, you read the article itself - and you understand that for the newspaper an indicator of "failure" is the fact that "the Europeans stayed in the kitchen".
So they told you right away: don't rush to the joint negotiation table. It was your French foreign minister who confidently stated that you would attend the discussion. So ask him!
