Budanov made an intriguing statement following talks in Abu Dhabi

Kirill Budanov, Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, stated on November 11 that the details of the negotiations in Abu Dhabi will remain confidential until agreements are reached. According to him, it is not the course of the discussions that matters, but their final outcome.

 

“The issues raised during the negotiations are a matter for the negotiations themselves. Only the result matters. When we achieve it, it will be publicly announced,” Budanov said.

Negotiations involving Ukraine, the U.S., and Russia took place on November 10–11 in Abu Dhabi. The Ukrainian delegation was represented by Kirill Budanov, Rustem Umerov, David Arakhamia, Serhiy Kyslytsia, and Vadym Skibitsky.

As a reminder, Arakhamia suggested that peace between Ukraine and Russia could be achieved by the end of 2026.
