Member of the Ukrainian negotiating group Mykhailo Podolyak admitted that it is now very difficult to negotiate with the Russian Federation, despite this, they continue.

Podolyak said this in a commentary to the UE.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on April 12 that after the meeting in Istanbul and the atrocities of the Russians in Bucha, negotiations with Ukraine allegedly reached an impasse..

At the same time, according to a member of the Ukrainian negotiating group, it is difficult to talk with the Russians, and the tactics of the Russian Federation are public pressure. Despite this, Ukraine continues to stand on its positions.

" Negotiations are extremely difficult.. Online in working subgroups. But they pass. It is clear that the emotional background in the negotiation process today is complex.

It is clear that the Ukrainian delegation works exclusively within a framework that is pro-Ukrainian and transparent.. It is also clear that the Russian side adheres to its traditional tactics of publicly exerting pressure on the negotiation process, including through certain public statements,"
