Kyiv is counting on the outcome of the trilateral consultations between Ukraine, the US and Russia in Abu Dhabi on 10\u201311 November, but believes that achieving a political breakthrough without a face-to-face meeting between the leaders will be difficult. This was stated by Ukraine\u2019s Permanent Representative to the UN, Andriy Melnyk, during a meeting of the Security Council.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\"><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Zelenskyy is prepared to meet Putin anywhere in the world, except Moscow.<\/li>\n<li>Melnik believes that a face-to-face meeting between the leaders is essential for a political breakthrough.<\/li>\n<li>Ukraine accuses the Kremlin of using the negotiations to drag out the war.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2 data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Zelenskyy is ready for talks with Putin at the highest level<\/h2>\n<p>According to <strong>Melnik<\/strong>, Ukraine remains committed to a diplomatic resolution of the war, despite the actions of the Russian side. At the same time, negotiations at delegation level are unlikely to enable a definitive resolution of key political issues without the direct involvement of the presidents.<\/p>\n<p>The diplomat noted that <strong>Zelensky<\/strong> willing to meet with <strong>Putin<\/strong> at the earliest opportunity.

In his view, Moscow is maintaining the negotiation process whilst simultaneously carrying out strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure and stepping up information and psychological operations.<\/p>\n<p>Melnik identified three areas of Russian activity: attacks on the civilian population, sabotage and psychological operations, and the use of diplomacy to prolong the war. He also accused Russia of attempting to undermine trust between Ukraine and its European partners.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, the diplomat called on UN member states to speed up the transfer of air defence systems to Ukraine, particularly interceptor missiles for the systems <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/economics\/nimechchyna-patriot-ukraina-pistorius\/\">Patriot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Talks in Abu Dhabi are due to begin on 10 November<\/h2>\n<p>A new round of trilateral talks between Ukraine, the US and Russia is scheduled for 10\u201311 November in the United Arab Emirates.
