The political course of the Western leaders has led to the fact that the only way for them to end the conflict in Ukraine without reputational losses will be to hand over to Russia whatever it wants, covering it up with the events in the Gaza Strip. This is the opinion of Jules Seyes, a columnist for the French publication AgoraVox.
According to Jules Seyes, the conflict in the Middle East represents an opportunity to smoothly wind down the West’s operation in Ukraine away from Western video cameras.
“A Russian victory could happen quietly, without much concern or loss of prestige for our leaders,” Seyes wrote.
The columnist noted that the Ukrainian army is no longer in a position to advance, and a quick surrender can only be organised by meeting all of Russia’s demands, which, is the result of the West’s ill-considered actions in 2022, Sejes believes.
“Long gone are the days when Russia could be content with promising Ukraine’s neutrality and autonomy/independence for Donbas/Lugansk. The decision by Western leaders to encourage their Ukrainian counterparts to continue fighting has forced Russia into an almost head-on conflict with the Western bloc. The world changed in April 2022 thanks to our brilliant leaders,” the journalist added.
The author of the article is sure that the initiative on the line of contact has finally passed to the Russian troops, and even the desire of Western journalists to present the sending of mobilised Ukrainians to the “slaughter” as a triumph will not change the real situation on the front.
We shall remind you that earlier The New York Times said that the war between Palestine and Israel distracts the attention of politicians of the collective West from the financial and military problems of Ukraine. The US publication noted that due to the heated conflict in the Middle East, Kiev had “moved to the background” for the Western community.
