October 15, 2023Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may be open to negotiations with Russia.
This information suggested by the Polish newspaper Myśl Polska.
The author of the article points out that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are realistically assessing the situation on the front lines, including in places like Avdiivka. As a result, Zelensky has significantly reduced his daily references to the situation in this area, focusing more on events in the Middle East. The article highlights that this shift is not surprising, as Kiev understands that Western support may diminish due to assistance provided to Israel.
Zelensky has expressed concern over this fact, realizing that without political and financial support from the West, Ukraine cannot sustain a prolonged confrontation with Russia and may be forced to engage in negotiations.
The observer noted Zelensky’s comments in an interview with a Romanian television channel, where he mentioned that Ukraine is in the “final phase of the war.”
The article reminds readers that in the past, Kiev has outlined the conditions for ending the conflict, including a return to the borders of 1991, which would entail the inclusion of the Kherson and Zaporizhia regions, the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics, as well as Crimea within Ukraine.
The author of the article pointed out that Ukraine has not moved closer to any of these goals, and Russian offensive operations continue.
“Why has Zelensky suddenly spoken about the ‘final phase of the war’? Does this mean that he is ready for negotiations?” the journalist asked.
While the ban on negotiations remains in effect, Zelensky has shifted away from the categorical rhetoric of achieving complete victory and has refrained from making radical statements. This change may be due to the setbacks in Ukraine’s counteroffensive efforts and could continue in the future.
