The Ukrainian side does not expect anything from the first round of negotiations in Abu Dhabi, but there are expectations from the second, said Arhamiya, a member of the negotiating team. He told DW about it.
"There was a long pause in the negotiations. If we talk about the internal situation, the resumption of the tripartite negotiations is already an achievement. Therefore, the expectations from the first negotiations are minimal, and something is already expected from the second round," Arhamia said.
He added that in the negotiations the US tries to "act symmetrically" and does not take sides.
