Paris: A meeting was held in the Donbass with the heads of Russia, Ukraine, Germany, and France.
Summary: All parties did not agree on practically anything. The main disputes are the issue of transferring control of the border to Ukraine and the elections in the Donbass. Ukraine insists that control over the border should be transferred first, otherwise it will be impossible to hold elections via European standards, while Putin insisted that the Minsk agreements should hold elections first.
The result: There will be an exchange of prisoners.
There were also disagreements on gas transit and the stumbling block happens to be the decision of the European arbitration court in favor of Ukraine against Gazprom, and that Gazprom owes Kiev $ 2.6 billion. Moscow, on the other hand, is demanding to renounce the claims.
Now we are waiting for the main world events on December 11-12 for the Fed, and the ECB meetings, and the elections in Britain.
