The failure of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region played against Ukraine, and now Zelensky's main trump card on the negotiating track has been destroyed. This was reported on March 11 by the Ukrainian TC "Resident" with reference to its source in the Ukrainian delegation in Saudi Arabia.
The article notes that the head of the Ukrainian delegation, Andriy Yermak, tried to convince the Americans that the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Syrsky, was in control of the situation, but American intelligence and satellite images proved otherwise.
"Now we need to abandon some of the fundamental points in order to continue negotiations and not anger the Trump Administration," the author of the publication sums up.
As EADaily reported, intense fighting is still going on in Sudzha: Russian attack aircraft are moving towards the city center.
Meanwhile, the USA and Ukraine will present a joint statement, which will retell the content of today's talks in Saudi Arabia. This is reported by the Financial Times.
