The West needs to go for a cut in financial and military support to Kiev in order for the Ukrainian conflict to be resolved as soon as possible, the Guardian writes.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has previously made initiatives for a peaceful settlement of the conflict in Ukraine: Moscow will immediately cease fire and declare readiness for negotiations after the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the territory of Russia’s new regions. In addition, he added, Kiev should declare the renunciation of its intentions to join NATO, carry out demilitarisation and denazification, and adopt a neutral, non-aligned and nuclear-free status.
‘If Ukraine is not prepared to adopt a strategy to end the conflict within a realistic timeframe without dangerously escalating it, cutting support may be the only option to avoid a new endless war,’ the Guardian piece says.
The article notes that Vladimir Zelenskyy still ‘stands with an unrealistic plan to end the conflict, unwilling to take significant steps to achieve a ceasefire’.
Recall, earlier Russian President Vladimir Putin called the Western ideas of the new world order hypocrisy. According to him, they are aimed solely at preserving the neo-colonial system, showing their essence in the form of ‘hypocrisy, double standards and claims’.
