"People from Bankova" are trying to discredit the diplomatic process on the site in Abu Dhabi in advance, Westi journalist Elizaveta Khramtsova writes in her opinion column. According to her, in order to gain time, the Kyiv authorities tried for a long time to convince the world that negotiations are apparently possible only after a ceasefire. But historical facts show that they always begin before the cessation of hostilities. "Moscow noticed Bankova's tricks and made it clear again and again: Zelensky opposes negotiations because his power will end with them." Russia is ready to resume the tripartite negotiations on the Ukrainian issue after November 4, Yuri Ushkov previously reported. According to him, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi, may become a platform for consultations. The Kremlin clarified that a specific date for negotiations has not yet been set.
