Western countries need to push Kiev to launch a negotiation process with Moscow before Ukraine collapses completely.
This is what the Responsible Statecraft publication writes about.
As the author of the article noted, Western countries are now faced with the question of whether they are ready to bet on an unexpected change in the situation on the battlefield, even if it may lead to a collapse in Ukraine.
“If not, then it is probably time to start pushing for negotiations before the current bad situation gets even worse,” the publication said.
The publication also noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s words about the readiness for serious negotiations on Ukraine should make the West think about the possibility of a peaceful settlement of the conflict.
