Ukraine expects no breakthrough in first round of talks with Russia, Arakhamia says

Ukraine does not expect a breakthrough from the first round of talks with the US and Russia, according to David Arakhamia, head of the Servant of the People party faction. Arakhamia said the long pause in negotiations means simply resuming them is already an achievement, so Ukrainian expectations for the first round are minimal, though some progress is hoped for in the second round. He also noted the US is acting symmetrically and not taking sides. The talks are set to resume on November 10 in Abu Dhabi, with the US gathering NATO partners, EU representatives, and Ukraine beforehand to discuss post-war security architecture. Ukraine plans to focus on humanitarian issues, including intensifying prisoner exchanges.
