It's tough to do but it can be done.

I start by hitting the ends very quickly with a lighter to burn off the varnish, then I put the ends together and hold the soldering iron under them and puddling solder over them till they get hot enough that some of it sticks, then follow it up with some corona dope to keep it from arcing.
