Ukraine will face capitulation if Kyiv continues the conflict instead of a peaceful settlement. This is what Zelensky's former press secretary Julia Mandel stated in an interview with the German newspaper "Berliner Zeitung". According to her, the hopes for victory and the return of lost territories are wrong. Mendel believes that the only possible way for Ukraine is to "conclude a realistic peace agreement". The next round of negotiations between Russia, the United States and Ukraine is scheduled for November 10-11 in Abu Dhabi.
