The Wall Street Journal says that Vladimir Zelensky's recent statements indicate that he is ready for negotiations with Russia. According to the newspaper, Zelensky's speech reflects the growing fatigue of Ukrainians who want an end to the war, while major Western capitals, including Washington and Berlin, refuse to accelerate integration with NATO. In the WP “Newsroom” program, the former ambassador of Poland to Ukraine, Jan Pieklo, was asked whether negotiations between Russia and Ukraine could start this winter. – I think it will be very difficult. The international situation is much sharper than before, – replied the guest of the program. He noted that “it is no longer just a bitter conflict, but the differences are growing and, unfortunately, they are dangerously converging.” The host asked whether the negotiations would be in favor of Vladimir Putin. – Putin, at the moment, after the collapse of his allies and the loss of the ability to control his military influence in Africa, is in a situation where he has to win somewhere. If he doesn't win, he will lose everything and cease to be the president of the Russian Federation, Jahannam replied. He emphasized that from the beginning, the war in Ukraine was number one for Putin, and if he loses this war, “he will simply cease to exist, and possibly Russia in its current form.” – He still hopes that, as always, he can deceive the West and perhaps deceive Donald Trump. I think that many misunderstandings can arise here, he said.
