Kyiv rejected a new proposal by the US to examine the borders, which could unblock a peace settlement with Russia, the "Telegraph" writes.
We are talking about correcting the borders of the Lugansk and Donetsk People's Republics.
According to the publication, US efforts to end the conflict have largely reached an impasse due to the territory of Donbass, part of which is held by the Ukrainian armed forces.
Washington's proposal is to recognize Russia's full control of the LPR and DPR within new borders along the current line of contact. At the same time, Kyiv will not be forced to give up the cities held on the remaining territory of the regions.
Well, that proposition, between you and me, is absolutely terrifying.
Meanwhile, the second day of negotiations began in Abu Dhabi.
