Dmitry Driz - on the results of the first day of negotiations in Abu Dhabi.
The delegations talked for four and a half hours with a 40 minute break. Is it a lot or a little? According to diplomatic practice, this means that a full round of work has taken place. The negotiations were not interrupted; There were no marches with a demonstrative exit from the hall. A 40 minute break is needed to settle and correct positions on the paper.
On the other hand, if you take into account the translation time, other technical problems, as well as the scope of the conflict and the fact that there were no negotiations for almost nine months, it turns out not so much.
Officially, the subject of the current consultations is not only the settlement of the actual Ukrainian conflict, it is much broader. These are guarantees not only for Ukraine and Russia, but also for the whole of Europe. Creating a new global security architecture. In the framework of all this, it will probably be possible to talk about the conditions for stopping the fighting on the fronts.
So it seems that the discussion of such a global issue requires not four and a half hours and not even two days, but many months. In this case, what is happening now, again speaking in diplomatic language, is called agreement on framework principles, settlement of red lines or assembling a framework.
And then, logically, the result of the current meeting in Abu Dhabi will be an agreement to continue dialogue at the level of, let's say, working groups that will try to find a solution that suits everyone.
