Today has been full of tasks, including for our diplomatic team. Ukrainian representatives report to me almost every hour – they are currently in the UAE, where a conversation took place today involving the Ukrainian, American, and Russian delegations. This is important, as such trilateral meeting formats haven’t happened for a long time.
They are discussing the parameters for ending the war. By now, they should already have at least some answers from Russia – the key is that Russia must be ready to end this war, the one it itself started. Ukraine’s positions are clear. I’ve defined the framework for dialogue for our delegation, which remains in constant contact: Rustem Umerov, Kyrylo Budanov, Davyd Arakhamiia, and Sergiy Kyslytsya. Tomorrow, General Hnatov, Chief of the General Staff, and a representative from Defense Intelligence, Skibitskyi, will join the negotiations.
As for the substance of today’s discussions, it is still too early to draw conclusions – we will see how the conversation develops tomorrow and what results it produces. It is necessary that not only Ukraine has the desire to end this war and achieve full security, but that a similar desire somehow emerges in Russia as well.
