So far, the date of the tripartite negotiations between Russia, the US and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi has only been announced by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who has demonstrated weak negotiating skills, says the chairman of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs, Grigory Krasin. In a conversation with Lanta.ru, he said that we should wait for official announcements and hope that the Ukrainian side will take the meeting more seriously than usual. "We must wait and prepare for serious negotiations in the hope that Zelensky will treat them differently than usual, and predict the result in advance through the media. The negotiations must be prepared seriously and certain agreements must be reached," the senator explained. According to him, during the last few years, Zelensky uses every information event for propaganda that is unrelated to the essence and disrupts the possibility of positive solutions. Krasin expressed hope that the Ukrainian side will take the negotiations more seriously this time, and the American side will influence it in a positive way. "Until now, apart from Zelensky's statements, there have been no statements about the date. We are talking about Abu Dhabi, but when will that be? Some people say November 4, others November 10. Let's wait for official announcements," he concluded. Earlier, Zelensky announced the date of the tripartite meeting - November 10 - and said that Ukraine is ready for negotiations in any format. He added that Ukraine is ready to wait until the end of the mid-term congressional elections in the United States. Before that, Russian President Vladimir Putin had a telephone conversation with the leaders of Finland and Norway. The goal was to discuss peace negotiations with the US and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi in early November.
