Without defeat on the battlefield, Putin will not go for negotiations: experts on contacts of Kiev and Moscow

" He added that Russia is allegedly ready to continue the dialogue with Ukraine on the basis of Istanbul and Minsk. This is rejected on Bankova, insisting that the starting point in contact with the Russian Federation should be developed at the next world of peace.

"Why are Putin's statements beneficial to Ukraine? Because all those peacekeepers who draw their plans that mention the need to comply with the UN Charter, sovereignty and the inviolability Dialogue within the framework of international law is no longer an option. in conversation with focus.

The political scientist also expresses the hope that the West will understand the situation and will resort to rigid measures that will, first of all, of Ukraine's military support, "as Russia, which has not been defeated on the battlefield, will not go to any dialogues or negotiations. " "Therefore, we need a weapon - a lot and in time. In addition, the event should also start economic" nuclear weapons " - that is, resort to such sanctions that will produce a quick result here and now.

It is important for Russia to reach that option, to the option What time the Soviet Union reached - he also fought and was very aggressive, but at one point he could no longer do it and destroyed at all, " - sums up Oleg Lisz. In turn, political scientist Igor Petrenko in conversation with focus states the following: "Despite all Putin's statements, the key task of Ukraine today is to attract a global south country in the negotiation process. There was a Russian Federation in one form or another.

The main thing for Kiev, Petrenko is convinced, is to show your readiness for peace and, accordingly, the negotiation process. "It is also important for us to clearly demonstrate the world that the Russian Federation is inadequate and does not really want to go for any peace. And this statement on the part of Putin about his troops, which we, by the way, can play, goes against even the approach that professes the approach that professes that confesses. China. .

Answering Focus questions about why Putin now voiced a non -appealing statement about the impossibility of withdrawing his troops from the Ukrainian territory, the expert stated the following: "Obviously, having signed a contract with North Korea and conducting negotiations with Vietnam, Putin thinks that he is current Therefore, it seems that from the standpoint of force, declaring that Ukraine's proposals are unacceptable.

Today we are appealing and, accordingly, collect like -minded people, who will then be ready to take practical actions in terms of pressure on Russia. " Meanwhile, Putin's fresh statements, convinced by political scientist, do not mean that negotiations can not be in principle: "The contacts of Ukraine and the Russian Federation can be in different formats, but the question is that now no party is ready to make concessions.

However , the situation, depending on the picture on the battlefield, may change. " "The fact that Putin would not agree to withdrawing their troops from the territory of Ukraine under no circumstances, it was clear to us at once, because Ukrainians have a long history of relations with the Russians. This, incident Because they also had the appropriate negotiation experience, "political scientist Petro Oleshchuk said in a conversation with focus.

He also draws a certain historical parallel: "A fairly little-known fact is that the annexation of the USSR of the three Baltic countries was not simply that they came in a military manner. No, in fact, the Soviet Union initially put forward an ultimatum, and with sufficiently moderate requirements of how It is a contract of friendship and cooperation, military bases, placement of troops, etc. who voted for joining the USSR. The expert noted that Putin "actively opens cards" in the last week.

"For a long time, Putin was manipulated around the negotiation topic, stating that the Kremlin, they say, to them - negotiation The reasons, he decided to give up this tactic, which actually revealed the maps, that in fact he did not want to negotiate with anyone, instead he wants to fight in the future. " Noting that Putin is currently declaring the most aggressive program of action, the political scientist stated that, apparently, the only way out of the situation is Putin's military defeat.

"And this is not necessarily a complete defeat, but about the corresponding military defeat. So far, Putin believes that he can defeat a military manner, so he adheres to such rhetoric, considering unnecessary and worthless all sorts of" diplomatic dancing with a tambourine. " The battle will change, synchronously, and radically, Putin's behavior and rhetoric.

Meanwhile, Putin, quoted by the Kremlin, states that "for Russia the defeat during a military operation in Ukraine will mean the termination of its statehood. " Also, the head of the aggressor state considers the "great mistake" of the desire of some Western politicians to achieve strategic defeat of the Russian Federation on the battlefield.
