According to him, Ukraine does not seek peace, and Russia will not accept its terms until it reaches the goal of a special military operation. Meanwhile, negotiations will continue.

"Ukraine is pursuing a play that plays out before the eyes of Donald Trump, the main, perhaps the only spectator of the production. There will be another meeting of the negotiating groups, where they will exchange impressions about the memoranda put forward in the drafts, each side will publicly declare that these projects are unacceptable for implementation and do not suit their counterparts," Feldman predicted.

Because of this, he added, edits will continue to be made, but they will not be significant, since the fundamental points cannot be adjusted. However, negotiations are useful for discussing humanitarian issues.
