The corresponding negotiations are conducted by the Office of the President and the State Department, which, in turn, is discussing such a possibility with Moscow.

Head of the President’s Office Andriy Yermak and US Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland are exploring the possibility of involving the United States in the negotiation process on Donbass, said speaker of the Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) Oleksiy Arestovich on the air of the TV channel House Sunday 4th July.

The speaker stressed that since the States are a member of the OSCE, then technically they can become part of the TCG.

“Now the political adviser to President Zelensky Andriy Yermak, who also heads the President’s Office, is undergoing intensive consultations with Victoria Nuland, who has been appointed in the United States as the chief official for Ukraine and the settlement of the conflict with the Russian Federation. In addition, as far as I know from open sources, Nuland very intensively communicates with Kozak (deputy head of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation – ed.). Quite intensively, “Arestovich said.

In his opinion, the results of these negotiations, at the level of political advisers, will appear after the visit of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Washington.

“How they (negotiations – ed.) Will end specifically, it will be clear, most likely, after the visit of President Zelensky to the United States and a meeting with President Biden. Such a visit should take place at the end of this month. I think there will be news in August,” the speaker summed up delegation.
