Zelenskyy says Ukraine proposed to Russia to hold next round of talks next week
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Saturday said Ukraine’s negotiator had proposed to Russia to resume peace talks next week.
Guessing you're staying consistent and against these talks too? Need to get Ukrainians in line, no talks until Russia wastes all their ammo, just need to mobilize younger Ukrainians instead of talks, right?
Not sure where I'm or paxmao said that we're against negotiations. But I'm almost sure that this round of negotiations will end without any significant result again. Russia will send some 3rd tier politicians who have no power to make decisions to these negotiations. They only can tell obvious what we heard so many times already - Russia isn't going to make any discounts and Ukraine basically has to surrender.
Zelensky multiple times told that he is ready to meet Putin face to face, but seems that Putin don't have balls for such meeting.
Claiming that it's a waste of time and won't achieve anything, is not really supporting negotiations, now is it?
What's the point for heads of state meeting, if they're not ready to sign peace terms that were already previously negotiated
at the ministers level? Ukraine knows Russia's terms, either Ukraine accepts those terms now, or naturally the longer it drags out the worse
Russianthe side's that is on the offensive terms will be, I believe Russia has been consistent with that. So the best terms Ukraine could've gotten were in 2021, next best is what they're being offered now. If Zelenskiy, in his greatest wisdom, decides against neutrality and wants to continue to pursue west's interests of bringing NATO into Ukraine, then there's a good chance he'll loose Dnipropetrovsk and/or Kharkiv next. With a clear lack of anti-air defense as we see more and more explosions making it though to Ukrainian cities every day, I can't imagine it'd be a good idea for Ukraine to go into another winter like that. If Ukraine can, they need to go on counteroffensive otherwise they need to accept the current terms, (outside of paxmao's theory of
serving west's interest and using Ukrainians to deplete a bit more of Russia's armament) there's really no reason for Ukraine to prolong this suffering.
