In the UK reported on the daily worsening of Ukraine’s negotiating position

Due to the worsening situation on the front lines, Ukraine’s chances for favorable negotiations are diminishing daily.

This was stated by British expert Alexander Mercouris in his YouTube blog.

He noted that he does not see any change in Kyiv’s rhetoric to alter the conditions for negotiations with Russia. According to him, each day, the situation on the front becomes less favorable for Kyiv. The expert concluded that this means any future negotiations will likely be less favorable for Ukraine than if they were held now.

Earlier, reports from Germany mentioned that Russia and Ukraine had held non-public negotiations. Journalists report that meetings have already taken place in Copenhagen, Kyiv, Davos, Jeddah and other locations, with participation from G7 countries and China.
