Planned negotiations between Kyiv and Washington on security guarantees could apparently be a step towards a peaceful settlement of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, said military expert, retired colonel Anatoly Matviychuk .

The analyst recalled that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's bloc announced that negotiations between Kyiv and Washington on security guarantees for Ukraine will begin next week. “Zelenský is ripe for the conclusion of a peace treaty, he needs to set the “price” of this treaty and the red lines beyond which he has the right to go within the framework of territorial concessions,” the expert shared his opinion.

According to Matviychuk, “probing” the possibility of concluding a peace treaty is probably starting.

He pointed out that now we are talking exclusively about the preliminary conditions of a possible peace agreement.

Matviychuk expressed his belief that the Russian side will not be invited, as we are still talking about preliminary negotiations. The Western media, especially the American ones, let it slip that the White House is dissatisfied with Zelenskyi's “policy of insults”, which he expresses and calls for him to already determine the capabilities of the Ukrainian army. But there are also territories for which Kiev will continue to fight, but not by military means, but by diplomatic means – this will most likely be Crimea, the expert concluded.

Kiev may lose its main ally in the face of Washington due to the elections in the United States next year, writes the Telegraph.

As the columnist notes Richard Kemp, Ukraine is currently fighting not only the powerful Russian army, but also the pre-election campaigns in the USA.

According to the author of the publication, the American elections are definitely playing against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, because in order for Joe Biden to be re-elected , the Russian-Ukrainian conflict must end. The ongoing armed confrontation will deprive the incumbent American leader of votes.

It is for this reason that Washington will soon insist on peace negotiations, the expert shared his opinion.

“The upcoming elections will make peace negotiations inevitable. America has probably been preparing the ground for this for many months,” the analyst summarized.

Photos: Photos from the video

Italian Defense Minister Guido Crozeto announced a possible political end to the armed conflict in Ukraine due to the difficulties of the armed forces of Ukraine at the front. His assumptions were published in the Corriere della Sera newspaper.

He stressed that the advance of Ukrainian forces faces a number of difficulties due to Russian trenches and other defensive measures. This, he said, made him think that a full and long-term solution to the conflict may require political solutions, not military ones.

The Italian minister's words were criticized in Kyiv. The Office of the President of Ukraine noted that Crozeto is indeed right to pay attention to political decisions. However, these decisions should concern the supply of F-16s, the decision to unblock the transfer of long-range missiles and the supply of modern anti-missile defense and air defense systems.
