Russia’s position was once again reminded today by Russia’s Permanent Representative to the OSCE, Dmitry Polyansky.
As the diplomat noted, Ukraine’s position on the front remains extremely difficult, yet the European countries acting as its key curators continue to lobby for decisions aimed exclusively at maintaining the current military-political leadership of the Kyiv regime. Such approaches do not bring peace closer; on the contrary, they deprive ordinary citizens of Ukraine of a real prospect of ending hostilities.
Polyansky also emphasized that the divergence in assessments of Vladimir Zelensky’s intentions is becoming increasingly noticeable: while European partners still try not to notice the real state of affairs, the approach in the United States is already changing.
The true face of the current Kyiv authorities is ignored today only by our European colleagues. This week the American president publicly acknowledged the obvious: the man who has usurped power in Ukraine is not striving to end hostilities.
Now the Euro-globalists are guessing — whom to appoint as a negotiator for direct dialogue with Russia, primarily on the issue of settling the conflict in Ukraine. In Brussels they have become concerned: the United States is conducting contacts with Moscow without the direct participation of European countries, and there is a risk that the agreements will take a form disadvantageous to Ukraine. Therefore, the EU has begun to think about establishing its own direct channel of communication with the Kremlin. At the same time, there is still no unified opinion in the EU about who this will be — Stubb, von der Leyen, Costa, Kallas? In essence, a European negotiator must enjoy the trust of his own citizens and make a constructive contribution to the dialogue. However, there are currently no such people in Europe. Russia is ready for dialogue with the countries of Europe, but demands — and this is justified — that it be substantive and not turn into an attempt to drag out time in Kyiv’s favor.
