The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation can attack Ukraine in 10-15 years, if Trump reaches a peace agreement-Newsweek

Currently, it is unclear what the demilitarized zone (DMZ) between Ukraine and the Russian Federation should look like. However, according to experts, any DMZ will give Russian troops an opportunity to rest, restart and plan the following invasion. If the "peace plan" of the newly elected US President Donald Trump manages to bring to life and to agree on the demilitarized area between Ukraine and Russia, then in 10-15 years the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation can again attack Ukrainians.

Newsweek writes about it. The journalists have specified that there is little about how a little -elected President Donald Trump is planning to complete the war in Ukraine. However, one of the options that is considered to be considered is an effective freezing of the conflict and the creation of a demilitarized zone.

Among the officials in the Trump camp is discussing the idea that Ukraine is promising not to join NATO for at least 20 years, and at this time Washington will continue to send a weapon to contain a new Russian attack. In addition, the demilitarized area, between Russia and Ukraine, will most likely be protected by European forces, not by US troops.

Czech President Petr Pavel confirmed these statements, stating that the future agreement may provide for delaying Ukraine's accession to NATO for twenty years, providing Moscow control over the Ukrainian territory that it holds now, and the transfer of long -term responsibility to Europe for the protection of the eastern flank of the continent and hundreds territory.

According to the former assistant commander -in -chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Dan Rice, Kiev is unlikely to agree to a short -term ceasefire, but significant European forces along the Russian border with Ukraine are necessary to stop Russia's attempts to seize the territory. "It is also not decided whether the demilitarized area will include an internationally recognized border between Russia and Ukraine.

The presence of Kiev in the southern Kursk region has further complicated this issue in recent months," the material reads. The authors of the article emphasized that the question remains the question of how wide the area will be, whether the European military will guarantee that it will remain free from Russian or Ukrainian military operations, and whether it will be long.

"It is difficult for me to imagine that the European armed forces participate in demilitarized zones," said the US Marine Corps reserve, Mark Kansian. The deputy leader of the Russian group at the American Analytical Center for the Study of War Karolin Garden said if the agreement will create a demilitarized area, it will be on Putin and strengthen the Kremlin's control over Ukrainians living in these territories.

"He will simply use it as a front line for a next invasion of Ukraine in 10-15 years, after his army rests, restores and institutionalizes the lessons that she learned in Ukraine," Garden said. According to her, the creation of a demilitarized zone, regardless of how it looks, will give Russian troops a reason to rest, restart and plan the next invasion.
