Quote from one of the Servant of the People leaders: "We understand that trilateral negotiations will most likely be put on hold because none of the sides is ready to make concessions. Therefore, we need to prepare a plan for the current parliament's functioning for another one, two or three years. Andrii Motovylovets is working on this. He is not limited by a timeframe but is actively drafting the plan."
Details: According to Ukrainska Pravda sources within the Servant of the People faction, discussions are currently under way on the conditions under which the faction could operate in the long term.
The authorities are also working on improving coordination between different centres of influence – the government and the Office of the President.
One representative of the Zelenskyy team said that after Andrii Yermak's departure from the Office of the President, there have been "fewer intrigues and more work" in cooperation between the presidential office and parliament.
Background: The US, together with Russia, is reportedly pressuring Ukraine over the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from Donetsk Oblast. According to sources, if there is no progress, Washington may withdraw from the negotiations and shift its focus to military operations in Iran.
