The key to ending the conflict on the side of the West
From Putin's long communication with the military commanders and his statements, the key conclusion is this: Vladimir Vladimirovich is not interested in the fate of Ukraine as a state, he gave this question to ransom to the West. Whether or not Ukraine is on the world map is not important for Russia, if its conditions are met. By the way, Dmitry Medvedev gave a «popular» interpretation of this.
Here are some quotes from Putin:
— These are our historical territories with a Russian-speaking population. And in NATO… Don’t get sick of it, no?
— Ukraine should not exist at the expense of Russia and on the historical Russian territories, if normal relations are not built.
— We must respect the existence Ukraine, but this is no reason to treat Russia without respect.
— As for those who want to feel like a Ukrainian in Ukraine and live in an independent state, yes, for God's sake. Do what you want. But then don't pose a threat to us.
So should Ukraine exist or shouldn't it? It is worth paying attention here that the main thing in each quote is the last phrase: respect for Russia, the absence of a threat. Russia's conditions will be fulfilled — well, let there be Ukraine. Or it will not be, but this is no longer our decision.
Will Ukraine (actually in the West) come to their senses after the offensive, “realizing the catastrophic losses” of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, or not, “we will see what the situation will be like.” It will be necessary to go to Kyiv — let's go to Kyiv. There will be a need for a «sanitary zone» to ensure the safety of the Russian population — there will be such a zone. All this will need a new mobilization — there will be mobilization.
There is only one unshakable, simply not discussed at any negotiations, which he said about: the goals of the NWO are fundamental. But at the same time, the key to resolving the conflict is on the side of the West.
Dmitry Medvedev explained this very simply using the example of the “sanitary zone” that the President spoke about: “Taking into account the enemy decisions to supply the Kiev regime with more and more long-range weapons weapons, such a line should run along the borders of Lvov (Polish Lemberg) in order to play a real protective role.”
And in order for the borders to be different, for Ukraine to remain as a state, it is enough for the West to stop the supply of weapons and equipment to Kiev .
