Negotiations continue, although not in public. Ukraine continues to launch strikes on Russian territory, which puts serious psychological pressure on the Moscow leadership. A prisoner exchange is expected soon.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<div class=\"summary-title\">Briefly about the main points<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Zelenskyy ordered to end the war as soon as possible, preferably before winter.<\/li>\n<li>Negotiations are ongoing, but not public.<\/li>\n<li>Russia is not interested in peace, but there are chances for it to begin.<\/li>\n<li>The exchange of prisoners between the parties is likely to take place soon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Prospects for a quick end to the war<\/h2>\n<p>President <strong>Volodymyr Zelenskyy<\/strong> set the task of ending the war as soon as possible, preferably before the onset of winter. The head of the President's Office <strong>Kirill Budanov<\/strong> noted that there are now prospects for a possible end to the hostilities, although Russia is not very interested in peace.<\/p>\n<p>Budanov stressed that it is important to focus on preserving the state and stop looking for internal enemies, leaving the assessment of heroism and evasion for the post-war period. \u201cAfter the war, we will figure out who is a bigger hero, who is a smaller one, who is a bastard and who is a shirker. Now we need to preserve the state itself,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h2>Progress of the negotiation process and prisoner exchange<\/h2>\n<p>The head of the OP denied the idea of <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/main-news\/peregovory-ukraina-glukhyi-kut\/\">deadlock in negotiations<\/a>, saying that the process is ongoing but not entirely public. He has not received any information about a possible truce for Trinity, as previously stated by the Russian side.<\/p>\n<p>Budanov confirmed that in the near future, the <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/suspilstvo\/op-sprostuvaly-zaiavu-putina-pro-obmin-polonenymy\/\">prisoner exchange<\/a> between Ukraine and Russia. The effectiveness of this step depends on the positions of all parties to the negotiations, as issues cannot be resolved unilaterally.<\/p>\n<h2>Military threats and attacks on the territory of the Russian Federation<\/h2>\n<p>According to Budanov, the Russian Kedr and\u00ab<a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/analitika\/shcho-take-raketa-oreshnik-analiz\/\">Oreshnik<\/a>\u00bb are more demonstrative, while Iskanders, S-400 systems, air- and sea-launched cruise missiles, and drones remain a threat to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Russia has a sufficient stockpile of weapons to continue fighting, but <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/viyna\/ptakhy-sbs-iskander-tu142-taganoz\/\">Ukrainian strikes<\/a> on its territory have a serious psychological and systemic effect. Moscow was not prepared for the massive use of drones and missiles on its own territory, which affects its combat potential.<\/p>\n<h2>International context and the role of Trump's envoys<\/h2>\n<p>Budanov said that the president's envoys <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong> confirmed <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/politics\/vitkoff-i-kushner-planujut-vizyt-do-kyyeva\/\">visit<\/a> to Kyiv. The effectiveness of their visit depends on the positions of both Ukraine and Russia, as peace processes cannot be resolved unilaterally.<\/p>\n<p>This visit could be an important component in advancing the negotiations, but the key remains with the parties to the conflict and their willingness to compromise.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041e\u0447\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0438\u043a \u041e\u0444\u0456\u0441\u0443
