Partners of Ukraine avoid discussing the victory over the Russian Federation: in what direction to go - Foreign Affairs

At the same time, they avoid statements about the "victory over the Russian Federation", instead of talking about support until it is needed. " At the same time, it is unknown about a clear plan for victory over the aggressor country: it is not even discussed. The relations of Ukraine and countries of the West on the Russian-Ukrainian War were told on the Foreign Affairs (FA) portal.

The portal published an analysis of the situation in the Russo-Ukrainian war, made by two authors-the experts of defense of Ukraine Andriy Zagorodniuk (2019-20) and analyst Eliot E. Cohen from the Center for Strategic and International Studies. In their opinion, Ukraine and partners should finally create a plan for victory over the Russian Federation, since there is still no plan. According to the authors, creating a victory plan, you need to think in the following areas.

"The event should clearly state that its purpose is the decisive victory of Ukraine and the defeat of Russia, and it must undertake to provide Kiev direct military assistance and support the defense industry of the developing country," analytics wrote. In addition, partner countries need to understand that their preliminary plan to end the war did not succeed.

Today, in the Russian Federation, combat operations in Ukraine are gradually transformed into an "existential confrontation", which should be completed by the complete destruction of the enemy, explained in the artign Affairs article. Some tools that will help the Ukrainian victory are also listed: "To save the criminal regime from collapse is not a task of the event," the article Zagorodniuk and Cohen said.

It should be noted that in the spring of 2023 President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky proposed a peace plan, which consists of 10 points. Among them - the requirement to the Russian Federation to withdraw from all the occupied territories, the payment of reparations, the punishment of military criminal offenses, etc. At the same time, US policies, UK and other Western countries are regularly repeating the continuation of support, while forbidden to beat their weapons in the Russian Federation.

In the summer of 2024, a peaceful summit should take place in Switzerland, where Ukraine will once again raise the issue of peace and end of the war. Representatives of Russia, as well as China, Brazil, South Africa will not participate in the event. We would like to remind you that on May 16, President Vladimir Putin visited China and met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
