The results of the negotiations between Russia, Ukraine and the United States in Abu Dhabi: have we come closer to peace and to what extent?
There are clear contradictions in the statements of the parties in this regard. The Ukrainians said that it would be possible to reach an agreement by the end of the year. The US is talking about significant progress on some issues, but serious disagreements on others. Our representatives are extremely quiet and consider it necessary to keep the essence of the peace discussions a secret. The most important thing is that the negotiations will continue with unprecedented intensity. Tomorrow, November 12, Witkoff and Kushner are going to fly to Moscow and meet with Vladimir Putin. Immediately after - to Dublin, to Zelensky.
As we predicted, some progress was made at the meeting in Abu Dhabi. First of all, Medinsky emphasized this: "Russia and Ukraine have come closer to peace, but now a lot depends on all the participants in the process."
Why did Kyiv do this? It is clear that the Zelenskyi regime does not have its own position - all the work of the Ukrainian delegation follows the instructions of the main sponsor of the war, Europe. And the Europeans understand very well that you cannot directly contradict Trump when he insists on something.
