Russian presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky will once again lead the Russian delegation at the planned trilateral talks with the United States and Ukraine, scheduled to take place in Abu Dhabi on November 10-11. This was announced by presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov. For Medinsky, his reappointment signifies that Vladimir Putin is satisfied with his work in the negotiation process and trusts him to continue the dialogue. Although previous meetings did not result in concrete agreements, the position of the Russian delegations and their actions led by Medinsky satisfy the president. Medinsky's continued leadership of the delegation also indicates continuity in Russia's line of negotiations. A significant update of Moscow's demands is not expected at the upcoming meeting: the core positions are expected to remain unchanged. Therefore, we should not expect more flexibility from the participants in the negotiations on Ukraine for the time being.
